The #GNotification / #GApplication side went smoother than expected https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/merge_requests/2207 (thanks Philip!) so chatty and calls will show different LED feedback in upcoming releases: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/chatty/-/merge_requests/767 once #glib 2.70 is out.
@Alexmitter nobody is working on the media player widget atm afaik
@Alexmitter They line up below the player.
@iooioio libnotify supports all the details of the fdo notification spec while glib being cross platform only uses a subset and e.g. categories are an fdo only thing (not even the flatpak portals support any way to convey those details). So we need to find a way to have applications suppply this inforation: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/2446
@karmanyaahm @unifiedpush thanks. A self hostablle push notification service would certainly be nice for apps to use at some point. Is there work being done on a distributor for GNOME or Linux in general?
@chrichri I think that's https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/issues/460 - someone inspecting that more closely would be welcome.
Notifications are coming to #phosh's lockscreen. Also in progress is different haptic/led feedback depending on the set notification category. The #phosh/#feedbackd side is mostly there and it works with #libnotify but needs changes in #glib to work with #GApplication too.

Debian bullseye reaches final milestone and is now fully frozen! https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2021/07/msg00002.html
@linmob Just noticed that you already mention X-KDE-FormFactor - sorry for the noise.
GNOME 41 kündigt sich an
I wrote something about how you can (ab)use the #Phosh 0.12 "mobile app drawer" feature: https://linmob.net/phosh-0-12-app-drawer/
#LinuxPhones #PinePhone #Librem5
@linmob Oh, I've also worked on a MR that makes the information in the desktop file superfluous by using more specific information from the metainfo XML: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/merge_requests/858 - that's not yet finished though but will allow more specific filtering for e.g. tablets or TVs.
(we'll keep parsing of the existing tags though for backward compatibility)
