do kai devices have nfc?
``` <26 February 2018> [...] KaiOS, today announced its collaboration to integrate NXP’s embedded Secure Element (eSE) and Near Field communication (NFC) solution on KaiOS```
either yes or it's being worked on
does kaio respect my privacy
it's heavily backed with a lot of money by both Google and Facebook
so probably no
to trash it goes
but then, it's not an OS where you are expected to have an active data connection
and it's open source, so I'm sure derivates like LineageOS will emerge once it gets more popular in a part of the world where people are actually able to produce software instead of just pretending to
I mean I really want mobile payments as a key feature
It's something I'm finding myself use more and more especially since all my cards are on it
like when I'm at the supermarket I just tap and my (((rewards card))) is there
aren't your reward cards just QR codes?
barcodes
but yes
I just have a PNG of my Coop reward card on the phone because I didn't want to have the app installed
I downloaded the app, installed, took a screenie and uninstalled
because it wanted full file and phone access
and when I want to cash-in my rewards, I just log in with the desktop
ui and all
I'd daily KaiOS though if it had Discord
I will probably daily kaiOS even without discord
I mostly use it on desktop anyway
id daily plasma mobile if it had phone for it
Half my usage is spread between mobile and desktop
since all sauces are given
only to nexus 5
afaik
>Direct linux as a smartphone OS
>Mum I couldn't call you because X broke again
where its "relatively easy"
>It's in beta!!!!
what is direct linux and how does it differ from Android or KaiOS?
like
linux where there isn't a layer over it
with android it runs java trash
with kaios it runs web trash
it doesn't anymore since Android 4
Dalvik was abandoned
