"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."

@fsfe @agx @purism
@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 #Debconf22 and it was the first time I could show the QR code of a train ticket on #phosh's lockscreen to the conductor (had to resort to unlock ➡️ nautilus ➡️ evince so far).
For that I stitched together a lockscren plugin that leverages #evince's libevince. Hope the other tickets will works just as well tomorrow.

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!

📢 📢 📢 Today we publish an Open Letter from developers to the #Linux #community regarding shipping unfinished patches to users.
Shipping unfinished patches harms the user experience and slows down the review process in #FOSS projects to improve the patches.
You can read our Open Letter at: https://do-not-ship.it
If you agree with this letter, you can support it by signing it, see: https://do-not-ship.it/sign

@debacle the genode: calls will be wrapped in auto generated stubs later on (like the `ge_gtk:init()` but that's on the erlang since and I want to make the node side more complete first.
