A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The real blocker here is the kernel must be compiled with UVC support, which is only enabled by default on many devices since Android 12. Custom ROM could enable this on older android devices, but I doubt it'll happen because custom ROM usually reuse the device's kernel instead of compiling their own version of kernel.
