@agx I mean I know I'm an #rms fan boy, but even for open source folks this is clearly GNU/Linux phone, as we have had Android/Linux phones for over a decade now

Improved 's screenshot support a bit so it can also handle screen area selection leveraging slurp (wayland.emersion.fr/slurp/) and gnome-screenshot.

Thank you to all the people who made #DebConf22 possible! The DebConf organisation team, Debian Video Team, our speakers, volunteers, and attendees. Would you like to join for organising the next DebConf? If so visit wiki.debian.org/DebConf/23 and contact the DebConf team.

For my talk I've hacked up the great pdf-presenter-console to fit the phone screen and show my notes so I can see what's currently on the LCD for the audience: source.puri.sm/guido.gunther/p

It's pretty ☀️ here at so let's have automatic switching to HighContrast theme in (based on the ambient light sensor) so one doesn't have to toggle it manually when moving to the talks inside.

Read the interview with Guido Günther, a developer at Purism, on how the free and convergent #PureOS system and the #Phosh graphical environment merge the phone and desktop experience into one, and how they benefit mobile device users.

Thanks to the kind work of our volunteer translators, you can also read it in Dutch, Italian, and Spanish.

"Fani: I have seen references about #sustainability in #Librem5. At the #FSFE we are also dealing with sustainability in software. What do you understand as a sustainable technology? [..]

Guido: For me, technology that has been produced with sustainability in mind allows the user to replace software and parts, as well as #repair the device over a long period of time without special equipment. [..] having free drivers is a requirement for sustainability."

@purism and it worked for for the other tickets on the way too 🙂 . Tweaked the UI a bit to use a close button rather than back which looks less confusing.

📱 On my way to and it was the first time I could show the QR code of a train ticket on 's lockscreen to the conductor (had to resort to unlock ➡️ nautilus ➡️ evince so far).

For that I stitched together a lockscren plugin that leverages 's libevince. Hope the other tickets will works just as well tomorrow.

@purism

Any good tips what to do in this Thursday evening when located near westbahnhof? I'll stop there on my way to .

It is not the first time this happens and then users are confused about bugs. Sometimes these bugs are known because it is unfinished work. In other cases, it can come from integrating random patches on top of releases. Now it is shipped in the form of a developer release which is advertised as 'look we have a new release'. If you want to test experimental stuff to give feedback upstream, consider to keep it in dev circles instead of social media.

I didn't brag about it here (yet 😉 ) but I'm extremely proud of my latest life achievement: having been granted a #debian Developer account! 🎉

This is due in no small part to my involvement in the wonderful #mobilelinux community, which I'm proud to be a part of.

Let's keep the FLOSS ball rolling!
