@agx @awai @pabloyoyoista @cas @mobian @dawndrums @postmarketOS Also, getting to PureOS dawn (based on trixie) after crimson (based on bookworm) shouldn't take that long either. I've been trying to take care of them both at once when catching up whenever it was possible, so the remaining work is mostly going to be about rebasing patches rather than distro maintenance (and that's all that's left in crimson now as well).

> Like Purism has not yet managed to release based on Debian 12, which was released 2 years ago
Mostly for non-technical reasons, and the rare technical ones are about not accepting regressions that other distros did. None relate to Debian.
> rebuilding every single package on their own infrastructure
Not really. The vast majority is just copied from Debian. It's a separate archive, but it doesn't build everything from scratch.
@linmob FWIW, L5's Vivante GC7000 Lite can also do Vulkan
Librem 5 protip: listening to music on a cheap pair of tiny in-ear headphones in a noisy environment? Enable HD Bass to wake the bass guitarist up:
amixer -D hw:L5 sset 'HD Bass' on

I've been learning how to properly format a movie script and what to include in a pitch deck. Soon it'll be done and ready to send out to the world to seek funding.
I heard noone wants to sponsor non-commercial movies. True?
But I've got a secret incentive in mind 🔥 🦉 😎
@datum @postmarketOS The thing is that the permission popup needs to be triggered by a user gesture. Not a dealbreaker, but makes designing a proper UI around it somewhat awkward - and I'm afraid that having so many buttons and popups in the process could actually *increase* the chance of just clicking through them all mindlessly 🤪
@opensourceopenmind @postmarketOS Yes, it needs WebUSB & WebHID and therefore Chromium. Dunno how well Chromium plays with Flatpak though, sounds like it could be fiddly.
I'm not sure I'm convinced about convenience being so much better. Definitely on Windows or macOS, but since uuu is packaged across distros it would seem to me that the option with the least friction is usually to just grab it from the repos. I'm willing to accept that I'm the weird one though 😜
So yesterday I saw a @postmarketOS toot about their web flasher for Android devices, and I thought - how hard would it be to make one for L5? Turns out - not hard at all. Here it is booting Jumpdrive.
Some caveats:
- requires permission setting on Linux 😔 I may work out-of-box on other platforms though
- it's sloooow, but there's hope: https://github.com/WebAssembly/design/issues/1271
- asks 5 times to allow access to the device. Could go down to 3, but no less than that.

@pavel @dan @ossobuffo @linmob @spaceraser Doesn't sound right to me. You can browse the web for a few hours on L5; on PP it will go flat in no time. PP undeniably wins in suspend time where it can last for a few days and L5 only for one, but one is all I usually need...
I'd certainly love it to last longer, as while it's usable, it's just barely so - but PP has so many other disadvantages I just don't see battery life in suspend as a deciding factor. If anything, that would be its price.
