Hello, and thanks for this unique product! I’m excited to be involved in the alpha. My daily driver is a Chromebook, and I use an iPhone. My ability to jump “all-in” with Anytype is challenged without a platform to use it on. When I try to launch the appimage in crostini (Chrome’s linux terminal…

Thanks for the help! lspci did not work - command not found vainfo was not installed. I installed it and it provided the following: tomfowler@penguin:~$ vainfo libva info: VA-API version 1.4.0 libva info: va_getDriverName() returns -1 libva error: va_getDriverName() failed with unknown libva …

Thanks for your support. It is an Acer Spin 713 with a Core i5 10th gen / integrated graphics, 8GB. Here is the message when I try to manually install va-driver-all. It thinks that is is already installed, yet when I run vainfo it isn’t happy: `tomfowler@penguin:~$ sudo apt install va-driver-all …

@Sedulous Thanks for all your input and ideas. I did load the Android version, but it is assuming phone display, so it is not as useful as the desktop. I’ll keep trying different combinations and report back here if I find anything. Thanks -Tom

Hey there. I’m wondering if anyone has found a fix for this yet? I have a Pixelbook (Chromebook) and I’m having issues getting Anytype installed on it. I’ve tried the above methods, but nothing so far.

Google Play has version 0.6.0 as of Feb. 11th which installs and runs as an Android app on Chromebooks as well as phones.

@tomfowler could you try to install the latest Android version on you Chromebook as suggested by @cadsmithinc ?

I have installed the latest version from the Google Play store on my Chromebook. It is usable, but looks like a phone app. Is it aware of a tablet mode? It would be nice to use more than the center third of my screen. Thank you for your efforts in making this work. It took me a while to respond…
