With the Librem 5 just hitting shipping parity and Purism holding stock for new purchases, it was time for an updated review of the tremendous progress our team has made with PureOS for the Librem 5 and Liberty Phone with Made in USA Electronics. Here we will talk about the good, bad, and lasting effects of PureOS on the Liberty Phone and Librem 5.

Poking around JDK 21 assembly output for Panama native calls, and it’s looking good! Here’s the body of a loop calling a “helloworld” native function, with everything inlined up to the “linkToNative” downcall, which receives native function info and redispatches. Nearly direct!

Turns out you on a #Librem5 you can install android in a container and it runs at native speed. The android window shows as an app, so I can just use an android app if I find a native version lacking, neat!

Humans have taken over the world. How do we decolonise it?

@thelinuxEXP @jorge @frigidcode carbonOS, GNOME OS, Endless OS, ChromeOS, and Android are immutable, atomic, and fully image-based.

I don't think Vanilla, Silverblue, Ublue, etc are immutable. They are atomic, and they're a hybrid between image- and package-based.

MicroOS would just be atomic.

NixOS is its own beast. It's atomic. I don't really see it as immutable or image-based

IMO, it's hard to find some term to lump all these distros together. They all do very different things...
