    A long-running Linux community joke is circulating again, with users showing off Arch Linux running on Android devices via Termux, using the fastfetch system info tool to display their setup.

    An Android user says no free and open-source camera app meets their needs, so they stick with Google's Pixel Camera. Open Camera is described as outdated and still built on the older camera2 API, LibreCamera is rarely updated, and Fossify feels generic. The complaint highlights a wider gap in the open-source Android ecosystem, where proprietary camera apps still lead on image quality and API support.
