So, you are willing to give your location to Google anytime any app asks for the location permission? A lot of people is not. And there’s been efforts over time to get privacy-friendly location services. So there’s clearly demand for this, even if it’s still niche due to lack of knowledge.
Posted on their github. All they have is a Chinese forum. And the wiki is…rough at the moment. Chinese only (not a problem with a translation extension) and a lot of “Todo” sections there. Basically the UI right now has no configuration options, besides “checking for updates” which didn’t tell you which version you’re in anyway. While I was testing I saw the check for updates had a blue dot, so I guess it did manage to reach their servers, and after checking and installing an update…seems that menu had a slight improvement, and now it does say current running version. But that’s it.
But there’s no denying the huge potential for this tiny device. It’s way cheaper and smaller, and consumes way less power. The physical limitations I can see is the NIC is only 10/100 (no gigabit connection), and no wifi. Everything else is software, which I reckon they’ll be working on.
