With a few small bumps, managed to get the #Librem5 booting into a #Mobian installer, and installed with an encrypted rootfs!

So far, only have #Dino configured, but that is enough for this to be a hugely useful communications device, especially with #JMPchat to connect up to telephony networks!

Love the kill switches for cellular modem, wifi/bluetooth and camera/mic!

This is my first #Debian #Trixie based computer, as there may be issues with the now-stable #Bookworm on this hardware.

If you're using an external dock with touchscreen: Due to the wlroots update we need to update the touch mappings to make touch on the external output still work. There will soon be a phosh-mobile-settings bugfix release to make this simple for known docks: https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/phosh-mobile-settings/-/merge_requests/63

phosh 0.30.0 is out 🚀📱:

The major change is switching #phoc to newer #wlroots but there's more fixes and improvements.

Check out the full release notes at https://phosh.mobi/releases/rel-0.30.0/

Regular reminder: if your site or app doesn’t work in Firefox, it’s broken.

I lived through the “this site requires and/or is best in IE” era, and I’d rather burn it all down than return to that.

Pro-tip: Firefox does most things better anyway. Give it a spin and enjoy a less-tracked web.

I've received my first sample of Glasgow Interface Explorer https://glasgow-embedded.org for evaluation

it is *beyond excellent*. it exceeds any standard I could possibly have for it. the team (1bitSquared and everyone else who collaborated) working on it deserves the highest praise

New phone who dis? It's real!
The #Librem5 is almost like the #PinePhone's big and slightly more specced up sibling - a Linux pocket computerbox bringing desktop covergence to a phone - and @purism has contributed most of the code that allows Gnome/Phosh/Linux on a phone to dynamically resize desktop apps. Happy to finally get mine and support this project! Purism got bodyslammed by supply chain issues during the pandemic and is now catching up on shipping ❤️ See https://puri.sm/

browser performance conversations often discuss perf in a vacuum. not super useful.

one thing we discovered back when i worked on Firefox was that it performed faaaarrr better for heavy users then Chrome, which optimizes for the median case user, which actually trends very light - a few tabs, small daily usage.

if you're a tab hoarder like me, Chromium perf gets pretty bad after 15-20 tabs. Firefox scales up to thousands w/o blinking.

I also found a storyboard with the origin story of the fruit-people from "Karambola"! :)

I put up the full animation on my ko-fi. Please support if you can!

Look what I dug up!
The initial ideas for the ending and the first original map sketches from "Karambola".

I finally added a new post on ko-fi - deleted scenes from ODGŁOS!

The times are hard and I'll be really grateful for your support ❤️ Thank you!

@dos I made the touchscreen usable! Getting a job there 15 years ago was a dream come true for me. Too bad it didn't last, small team, great people.

Mocking Google for their totally-not-an-attempt-to-DRM-the-Web is the right thing to do.

Open issues on the proposal repo and let them know what you think.

Politely.

But, don't be fooled. Even if they take this back, it doesn't change how they think. This is their intention. They just failed to slip it by this time.

The answer is to take power away from Google. Stop using their stuff. Build alternatives. It's not easy, but it's the only way.

And mock them. That's always fun.

I've been away from my art projects for some time, due to capitalism...But I've been working on this cute travel journal.
I tried my best to make it well thought-out and pretty with my hand-made art and paper cu-outs. It should make planning trips easy, and it's filled with fun prompts for creative writing, drawing, or contemplating ❤️

If you want it, go here:

Should be available in other countries soon.
Thank you 🔥

@mistersixt @janvlug Crimson isn't even ready for developers yet, let alone users. There are many regressions over byzantium, many broken dependencies and many non-installable packages there. It was just barely cleaned up enough for images to build last week, and plenty of work is still needed to put it into shape. You can run it if you want, sure, but expect problems and don't expect any support.

@eccentricShaft @kop316 Just to fight the disingenuous: I can fully subscribe to what Chris said there and can add games, giving talks using the phones usb-c output for DP, playing music not only with headphones but also car audio systems via BT (including song information in the cars dash), …

I wouldn't say we have still work to do but who hasn't? This might still be a niche compared to proprietary mobile OSes but there's plenty of people using phones like the #librem5 as daily drivers.
