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):
…and here are my #FreeSoftware bits for June:

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (26/2024): #Phosh 0.40.0 and other good news
https://linmob.net/weekly-update-26-2024/
#LinuxMobile #Librem5 #PinePhone #postmarketOS #Mobian #SailfishOS #UbuntuTouch
@craftyguy Nice!
Wallpaper will be able to stretch across the top bar soon too and not require css (phoc side for that landed in 0.40.0) #shotonlibrem5:
@stefan …oder GObject (das macht das ja in etwa so)? Glib wird ja schon benutzt und dann kann man (muss man aber nicht) auch signale und properties verwenden.
#phosh 0.40 will correctly detect the #steamdeck's panel orientation and start up in landscape mode now! 🎉
Here's a photo of it running on #postmarketOS!
There are still a few rough edges with running pmOS, phosh, and the other UIs we support, on the Steam Deck... but it's still really nice to see one rough edge smoothed out.
pmOS on the Steam Deck, just like the blueberries in the photo, is not quite ready for consumption... 🤞 😄
Thank you @agx for your help and patience!
@kirschner @fsfe Great initiative. Hope it works out!
Best thing for customers is to avoid Apple in the first place and rather channel money to companies supporting user freedom and the #FreeSoftware movement.
"#iPhones and #iPads are not general purpose computers" states #Apple. I vehemently disagree!!

@crft Just check how you can autologin with e.g. gdm or phog by following the DisplayManagers steps for autologin.
You should also be able to autologin with tinydm by either passing `-U` to phosh or making sure there's a `GDMSESSSION=phosh` in the environment.
So it's technically not a bug in tinydm but how you have configured the display manager to launch your session.
@dos @kyle The article cold have been more clear here but I still think another supported device could become a net positive for gnome, phosh and the LinuxMobile ecosystem.
"The Hong Kong-based company is working with a Chinese OEM to make sure that there are native Linux drivers for all the device's hardware." could be promising if native means "mainline".
I'm happy to announce the availability of my new app "eSIM Manager" on postmarketOS! With it you can manage and install eSIMs on your phone running postmarketOS! No more need to boot into Android to do the same!

@me Idk about other distros but Debian unstable already has it: https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=feedbackd&suite=sid (and of course the phosh nightlly builds have it too: https://phosh.mobi/posts/phosh-nightly/ )
@blake Make your shell use the wlr-layer-shell protocol. See how phosh, squeekboard or phosh-osk-stub do it. Alternatively you can get the "shell in a box" in rust using libphosh-rs: https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/libphosh-rs
@Baggypants This looks broken on other compositors too. Might be worth reporting to firefox?
