PostmarketOS have a wiki page for it. Looks like it's tethered only, and pretty limited.

What is the best game engine/framework for a absolute beginner to learn? in c/programming@beehaw.org

I'd suggest maybe wait for 4.1. I just started playing with 4, and hit a bug where Godot will hard crash whenever you try to view the Terrains tab if you've created terrain sets, used them in your scene, then deleted the terrain sets.

Is SQL a good language for data transformations? in c/programming@beehaw.org

Can I suggest duckdb? You can start out writing SQL directly on top of CSV and Parquet files. But then if you want/need to do something more complicated, you can import duckdb into Python, keep running the SQL you already wrote, convert it to a Pandas or Polars dataframe, transform it, then query the result in SQL.
