My Raspberry Pi desktop computer

About half a year ago I've put together a little Raspberry Pi computer to explore how much it can replace a bigger computer in my daily use. I've got the idea from watching Jonathan Blow's talk about software bloat and reading about Hundred Rabbits's computer setup on their boat.

=> Jonathan Blow - Preventing the Collapse of Civilization (YouTube) | 100R - raspberry pi

The journey has been fulfilling so far and, besides other things, it brought me to Gemini. It seems appropriate to introduce my Raspberry Pi computer here first.

Hardware

=> Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ | Raspberry Pi Touch Display (7", 800x480) | SmartiPi Touch Pro case | Microdox split keyboard

I power it with USB power bank. The screen has a very small vertical viewing angle as well as bad touch accuracy, but overall I like it.

Software

This list is under constant refinement, although only browser has changed so far.
