Pinot Metasearch Tool in Breadstick

Breadstick runs Debian's own pinot package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so Pinot Metasearch Tool should look and behave as it does on a Linux PC. On Samsung DeX, Floating mode opens it as its own window beside your Android apps, and Desktop mode runs it on a full Linux desktop.

Linux apps use Android's own network connection, and a VPN connected in Android covers them too. More about internet apps in Breadstick.
