📱 I've tagged version 0.0.2 of #feedbackd (a daemon to handle audio, haptic and led feedback on #linuxmobile e.g. when using (but not limited to) #phosh
https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/feedbackd/-/releases/v0.0.2
Along with that goes feedbackd-device-themes:
https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/feedbackd-device-themes/-/releases/v0.0.2
Themes can now be way smaller as they can chain up to the default theme allowing users to override individual events.

I often use the same key combos in the terminal so I added a (configurable) shortcut bar on top of #phosh osk-stub's (pretty basic) terminal layout. Let' see how this works out.

Since #phosh made lockscreen widgets a plugin, I actually found it is prettty easy to make one yourself! I have been playing around with one that displays emergency info and emergency contacts.
Is there anything obvious I am missing from it? I got these from Android. Note that a user can add/remove/edit Emergency Contacts as they wish. (My hope is to merge this back into Phosh proper).
📱 Device maintainers and #phosh users (hopefully) rejoice: #feedbackd will soon support merging themes so you can e.g. chain up to the default theme and just replace the feedback for events you want to change. There's also a validator to check your changes (which is also used in CI).

A lot of Mastodon instance admins are either getting their first hosting bill or getting a very increased bill from extreme growth and usage. Some may be experiencing bill shock.
Please make sure your paying/supporting them!
Twitter was free because you were the product. Mastodon doesn't work this way.
Many instances list a patreon or donation links on their about page.

There can't be enough emojis 😎 :😃 😹 so I added a new widget (based on #gtk 's emoji chooser) to #phosh's osk-stub:

I've been trying to re-enable power management for the modem on the #librem5 running #postmarketOS, but was plagued by issues with the modem resetting immediately every time is suspended/resumed.
Once again, the product of hours of git bisecting and testing is a patch that's less than 1 word 😅

This tiny Blackberry Q20 #keyboard isn't a mechanical keyboard, but mounted on an #OpenHardware PCB by @arturo182 and #Solderparty (https://www.solder.party/) which makes it a generic USB-C keyboard (and mouse). So cuuuuute! 🥰 😍
Available ready to use at e.g. https://www.tindie.com/products/arturo182/bb-q20-keyboard-with-trackpad-usbi2cpmod/ or https://www.lectronz.com/products/bb-q20-keyboard-with-trackpad-usb-i2c-pmod or https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/bbq20-keyboard-with-trackpad-usb-i2c-pmod (Not affiliated and I don't get any money. Just a happy #Pimoroni customer. 😇)
Background: Rama Works U80-A keyboard with MT3 Skiidata keycaps for comparison.
There's just been an update for my #Librem5. The new #phosh version offers an experimental plugin called phosh-ticket-box.
It allows the user to show PDFs from the lockscreen without unlocking the phone.
Show the QR for the parcel you want to send without unlocking.
Show your train ticket without unlocking
Show whatever PDF you like without unlocking.
It can be enabled in phosh-mobile-settings in the Lockscreen menu.
gsettings get sm.puri.phosh.plugins.ticket-box folder shows the path inside the home directory the plugin looks for PDFs in. The default is /home/purism/phosh-ticket-box.
Make the directory, put a PDF inside, enable the plugin and lock the phone. Enable the screen, swipe from the left border of the screen towards the right, select by swiping left and right the Tickets pane (if you have enabled more then one plugin) and click on the PDF to show.
Resizing and scrolling works with the known gestures.
Thanks @agx@librem.one !
I noticed this is working now, it works to stop the alarm without unlocking. Thanks! 👍
It will be much appreciated by certain of my family members who have been complaining that it always took so long for me to turn off the alarm in the morning. 😄
With the update of @dino to 0.3.1 in #debian, the functionality on small screens such as #pinephone running #mobian ... did not work so great.
The version uploaded to debian experimental, allowed resizing the different parts of the window a little bit, but still often hid useful information...
So I refreshed the libhandy patches!
Packages available from:
https://people.debian.org/~vagrant/debian/pool/main/d/dino-im
The "UNRELEASED" repository is signed by my key in the debian-keyring.
Have not tested much, but works for me!
#chatty 0.7.0-rc4 the multi protocol client (sms, matrix, xmpp) used with #phosh on multiple mobile devices, running on a desktop with multiple #matrix accounts and an #xmpp account.
It's not exactly a "big deal" to run it on a desktop, since one of the ideas with #linuxmobile is convergence, and being able to run the same software across devices (mobile, desktop, tablet, etc), to be able to do this sort of thing.
But it is still very cool to see :)

As I don't speak Japanese myself I could need help here: Does this make sense to pursue? As I read that flick input is preferred nowadays I wonder if romaji
is useful at all? Does the typing look correct? What would be the minimal missing to make this useful to people?

This is #phosh osk-stub reusing the (not yet merged) completion code to talk to #uim-anthy to input bits of #Japanese. I mostly did that to see if the interface is flexible enough but it would be great to make this actually usable:
