@suraj_sloth and Gotam talking about #phosh at OOSC (https://oosc-next.vercel.app/):
Yesterday I had the chance to give a short #phosh status update in the FOSS on Mobile devroom at #FrOSCon: https://programm.froscon.org/2024/events/3153.html

Evangelos talking in the FOSS on Mobile Devroom at #FrOSCon 2024 about debugging the #phosh / #gnome stack. #LinuxMobile #ShotOnLibrem5
@arunmani and myself worked a bit on making Wi-Fi networks easier to select in #phosh's quick setting status page by giving the Wi-Fi list more vertical space and making each list box row a bit wider thus making it easier to select via touch (the same applies to other status pages like Bluetooth device selection):
Can't join #GUADEC (https://events.gnome.org/event/209/) this year but at least I can watch the live stream on a 📱 running a #gtk based shell (#phosh) and lots of #gnome components with a video player using GTK and #gstreamer (#livi). Life could be worse.
While @suraj_sloth is working on the #UnifiedPush connector side in #Chatty I got a chance to add the code for registering/unregistering #Matrix push gateways in #libcmatrix and Chatty (with this I can readily round trip messages up to the UP distributor):
We've tagged version 0.2.0 of #livi (a small video player for #LinuxMobile) a couple of days ago and @rmader updated it on #flathub also bumping #gstreamer to 1.24.4 improving #h256 and #vp9 support.
So far you had to pull out #phosh's top and bottom bar quiet a bit to make it unfold. That's kind of o.k. on 📱 like the #Librem5 or #PinePhone but can be cumbersome on larger phones like the #OnePlus6T or tablets like the #Librem11. I've put out an MR for #phoc which adds a fling #gesture so you can also fold/unfold with a fast swipe. Here's a short video demoing this for different screen sizes:
Was able to grab the #nlalert2024 #cellbroadcast message with our WIP #ModemManager patches. #phosh will use the same interface.
The #feedbackd #Rust bindings are now available on crates.io: https://crates.io/crates/libfeedback
I needed #Rust bindings for an app to interact with #feedbackd to submit #haptic feedback. Here's the generated bindings for libfeedback in case someone else needs it too:
I remember how nervous I was when (in early 2020) I went to the post office with my #Librem5 📱 to drop off a 📦 and present the barcode on the phone. (Having previously scp'ed the pdf to the phone to show it in evince).
Would the 🔋 last? Would it overheat? Would the display stack hold? It worked.
Nowadays I don't spend a thought: Fill in the data on my laptop, save the pdf, have it synced automatically via #syncthing to #phosh's ticket-box folder and show it at the counter. ✅
I've tagged a new release of mobile-broadband-provider-info:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mobile-broadband-provider-info/-/releases/20240407
It has updated providers, support for mms attachment size and we switched the build system to meson.
…and here are my #FreeSoftware bits for April:
https://honk.sigxcpu.org/con/Free_Software_Activities_April_2024.html
Laptop died yesterday but thanks to the #Librem5, the Baseus Dock, an HDMI Screen, a USB keyboard and #Phosh's docked mode I have access to most of the things via my phone.
#nitrokey helps a lot as that means I have my ssh keys available by just plugging it in.
Took me about 15min to notice that I didn't even plug a mouse in.
Forgot to add: toggling always-on-top will also get a visual indication in an upcoming #phoc release (likely 0.39.0).
