Similar topic.
And if you're interested in pre-ordering the Librem 5, it is on sale two more days.
@feynman@fosstodon.org @kde@mastodon.technology @kde
Yes, totally free. I use KDE Plasma on PureOS, one of the few distros with the blessing of Stallman / FSF.
See https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html
And soon I'll have that same OS on my Librem 5 phone. I'm really curious if this will be the first smartphone Stallman will use ๐
Just discovered that #Librem5 issue on porting #GNOME Contacts app was officially closed three days ago. \o/

Klar, was soll man denn auch machen wenn der Google Algorithmus regelmรครige Updates mit besserem Ranking belohnt?
(wie viele AKWs man wohl abschalten kรถnnte ohne Nonsenseupdates...)
@synfinner @jwinnie@mastodon.cloud @purism
It certainly does! Admittedly I'm on PureOS KDE Plasma, but even there (secondary target) updates are easily accessible via info area icon.
What many people don't seem to understand is that Purism doesn't specifically target geeks. They're iterating on convenience, so your mom could pick up a Librem in the store and get going within minutes.
(https://puri.sm/posts/up-and-running-with-your-librem-in-three-minutes/)
Soon it'll be upgraded to PureOS store, also allowing (free) flatpaks for the Laptops and the phone.
@synfinner @andre @purism better CPU and Display basically.

@blacklight447 @todd PureOS uses AppArmor. Verified boot should be possible but likely not day one. But @kyle wants it ๐
