Ever since doing the initial completion support in #phosh 's osk-stub I wanted to add a generic "unix pipe" like completer. phosh-osk-stub would feed the program preedit on stdin and read the completions from the program's stdout.
That is there now and with that and some more changes I can use @zachdecook 's #swipeGuess to do swipe like typing. To be clear: all the hard work is done by swipeGuess, phosh-osk-stub just piggy backs on it:

Nice #Librem5 update today brings Camera-Update. All the different functions (Gain, Balance, Exposure, Focus) can now be set to auto. While not always working perfect, this enhances my fotos as my use case in 99 % is not to set all parameters perfectly but to just take quick a foto. Also there is video-recording now. I am excited. I am about two weeks daily driving my Librem5 now and I feel that I will not switch back to Android. #purism #linuxphones

I'm now convinced that #Phosh is the best for tablets and convertibles. Thanks to everyone who worked on this.

Now that I know Thomas' fediverse handle:
The #phosh emergency calls MR above is by @CoderThomasB 👍
Icons in the power-button MR are by @snwh 👍
The small green indicator in the top right corner is supposed to figure out if hardware acceleration is in use (as otherwise your battery is drained quickly).
Packages on flathub are updated.
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:

- Emergency call MR: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/merge_requests/904
- 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:

...for my usage pattern the fact that mpv can now successfully disable the screensaver is the most notable improvement in this release 📺 .

It's the Yearly Poll™ time again! Do you use any of the following as a daily driver?
(That is, something you use and bring around with you most days - even if it's not your only mobile device)
If so, what is your experience?
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.
