@briana Sure, it "just" needs some work :)

@spacemanspiffy @purism Also, recent dmabuf improvements in Firefox on Wayland should have a positive impact - but I've tested only the ESR version so far which doesn't have those.

@spacemanspiffy @purism Firefox isn't that smooth yet. It defaults to GPU accel being off and you can only force the old OpenGL compositor on - no WebRender yet.

However, I'd expect it to become just as smooth once etnaviv and WebRender start to play well with each other :)

@tuxicoman It's Anbox. See: https://social.librem.one/@dos/103564110805585416

It's more of a proof-of-concept though, needs some work to be really usable - but at least the hardest bits are already there.

@anirudh @purism Epiphany (GNOME Web) also has a nice back gesture :) Once it starts to properly utilize GPU acceleration it should be pretty fast as well.

@jfred @purism It depends. GL apps are fast and snappy, but most GTK3 apps are slower because they render everything in software. Things should massively improve once we switch to GTK4 and make it work well with mobile GPUs.

@craftyguy Upstream Mesa 20.0 and our kernel tree based on 5.7-rc6 (but should be pretty much the same on 5.6 already).

I have some hacks that enable 60 FPS refresh rate though, it's normally limited to 30 for reasons unrelated to performance.

This is unmodified desktop Chromium straight from the Debian repositories.

Video decoding is unaccelerated yet, but 1080p videos seem to work well even without it (although power hungry a bit :)).

That's how the Librem 5 performs with all the GPU acceleration in place :) @purism #librem5 #phosh

@sir Commafeed

@anornymorse I guess it would help, but waypipe already exists so there's no need to write another one :P https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mstoeckl/waypipe

It's not easy to play like Hendrix during the pandemic, but it was worth trying anyway. #GitarowyRekord #GuinnessWorldRecord #heyjoe

Thanks to work of @purism kernel team and ongoing upstreaming efforts, getting new kernels to run on the Librem 5 is a breeze! This is #Librem5 running the freshly released #Linux 5.7-rc1 with ~100 patches on top; some of which are already queued for 5.8. #mainline #kernel
