Completely forget: I've tagged version 0.0.3 of μPlayer (a small video player using #gtk and #gstreamer targeting fullscreen landscape playback on mobile phones) the other day:
Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (14/2023): PineTab V and Happy Easter!

- Power button menu MR: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/merge_requests/1224
(the related #gnome-calls side MRs are already merged, thanks @devrtz)
and this is how it looks when we actually do an emergency call (backed by GNOME call's dummy plugin so the call isn't actually going out). It also shows that things work the same way in the locked and unlocked shell:
Some of the styling for #phosh's long button press menu is now in place (aka merge requests) and things are also tied to the emergency call side.
This is how it looks when emergency call numbers are fetched from the phone's sim card:
A new issue of #ThisWeekInGNOME is now online!

...for my usage pattern the fact that mpv can now successfully disable the screensaver is the most notable improvement in this release 📺 .
Carlos García wrote about the evolution of accelerated compositing in #WebKitGTK, and how we are transitioning towards using DMA-BUF for graphics buffer sharing—simplifying code along the way: https://blogs.igalia.com/carlosgc/2023/04/03/webkitgtk-accelerated-compositing-rendering/
phosh 0.26.0 is out 🚀📱:
Lots of this release was internal rewiring and test suite improvements for upcoming changes but there's some more:

#phosh #librem5 @purism #gnome #linux #mobile #LinuxMobile #MobileLinux
The first bits of emergency call support landed in #gnome calls 44 so that Thomas's emergency call work (https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/merge_requests/904) can hopefully land soon.
With the groundwork done in #phosh 0.25 and the (upcoming) 0.26 to move power button handling from the compositor (#phoc) to the shell (phosh) we'd have the bits in place to wire up a long press menu for e.g. emergency calls, screenshots, etc.
This certainly needs styling but it'd be nice to see the first bits in 0.27. I became used to it pretty quickly.
I met someone else on campus who has a #librem5
I think this qualifies for the highest concentration of L5's/campus.

phosh 0.25.2 is out 🚀📱:
This is a bugfix only release to fix a regression on the #PinePhone. #Librem5 is not affected . While at that we backport some fixes in #phosh. Thanks QC8086 and airtower for testing!

Today's new peak in peer review's abusive behavior: "You have been assigned to review a manuscript for [paywalled journal]", without asking. Not even the classic "invitation"/spam letter — direct assignment together with account creation on a review platform. I have the feeling my review is going to be [very] late…
