#Phosh's file selector (pfs) picked up existing 👍-nails of files since some time but didn't create missing ones. @arunmanij fixed that by creating a thumbnailing service. The file chooser calls into this service to request the creation of the missing thumbnails.
Having things in an extra service allows us to experiment with different implementations (it currently uses GnomeDesktopThumbnail under the hood) and also to sandbox things further if desired. Since pfs is used by our portal implementation all apps using it (including #flatpak s) will leverage that automatically.

Red State Workers Could Lose Out on Disability Benefits as Trump Administration Rewrites Eligibility Rules
---
Planned changes to Social Security’s disability program could leave hundreds of thousands of older blue-collar workers ineligible for aid. These changes would fall disproportionately on some of President Trump’s most loyal supporters.

Two (hopefully) useful additions to #Phosh's quick settings: There's now a (optional) location service toggle to enable / disable location services (contributed by @gauthamx) and the caffeine quick setting can now automatically disable itself after a given period of time (contributed by @rudraps). The possible timer intervals will become configurable in mobile settings at some point.

Since #BoycottDisney is trending now, why not take a look at Knights of Guinevere? It's an indy show created by Dana Terrace, the creator of The Owl House (a show that Disney cut short because it "didn't fit the brand"), and it's basically a sci-fi horror story about what it's like to work for Disney. It premiered yesterday. CW violence (it's an adult series).

Librem 5 PM OS Gnome Mobile Shell Impressions:
1. visually very pleasing and intuitive gestures and buttons
2. its a bit sluggish, hesitant turning off display with pwr button, unfolding panels, exposing app switcher etc
3. infrequent crashes, shell restarts, ui touch input freezes,
4. nightlight does not work,
5. calls does not correctly route audio, cant hear person on other line, and person cant hear you
6. no terminal keyboard switcher
@mrakmm if you figure out how to replace stevia please post, its missing the terminal layout making it impossible in many app text input fields to paste
