With that, I am now on holidays. I'll happily review and merge merge requests for linmob.net and linuxphoneapps.org during that time, and I may reply to mails, but I think I'll take a break from social media. See you all soon!

The PwnieAwards this year go to the Pwnie Award.
They actually gave the Lamest Vendor Response to the Google TAG for “unilaterally shutting down a counterterrorism operation”.
Google found 11 zero days that were also used by US law enforcement to target phones of "terrorists".
And we know today that can be everyone that you disagree with.
#TIL that the #Debian team has put some considerable effort to deploying federated services: https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianSocial
Nice initiative! Especially for the instances of services you don't see quite often around like Matrix, Jitsi, Plume.
Long life the #fediverse!
What's cool in the #XMPP community:
It's a community.
Even the vendors or software developers are reboosting the release notifications of new software version from another vendor/developer to make it spread to a wider audience.
I like that community! :-)
One of the several beautiful about the #9euro ticket, besides the price, is that it is simple.
Whatever comes next as a successor to it, please let it not be 20 new different types of tickets.
Better a late announcement than no announcement:
Calls 43.beta.0 got released a couple of days ago

I'd like to hear from people that are running #phosh on other devices than the #librem5 or #pinephone (including pro) to get a better idea about the use cases.
Is it portrait or landscape by default? What's the native resolution and display diagonal?
Kindly asked @FrOSCon yesterday to please add #confy and #mobile #linux to the list of supported platforms for the conference talk feed and it's already fixed: https://www.froscon.org/programm/ - thanks a lot!
Together with #phosh itself I've tagged 0.20.0 versions of phosh-mobile-settings (to tweak some advanced mobile settings, https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/phosh-mobile-settings/-/tags/v0.20.0), phom (a virtual mouse to control the mouse cursor on a 2nd screen, https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/phom/-/tags/v0.20.0) and phosh-osk-stub (a input-method debugging tool, https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/phosh-osk-stub/-/tags/v0.20.0)
phosh 0.20.0 is out 🚀📱 :
After three beta releases we've finally tagged phosh 0.20.0.
Check out the full release notes at https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/tags/v0.20.0 . This also links to the release notes of the beta releases which have more details.
And the good news is we already have new merge requests pending for phosh 0.20.1 and 0.30.0.
phoc 0.21.0 has been released, more stable than ever, paving the way for the imminent release of phosh that will bring a lot of goodies in :) Grab it at ➡️ https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phoc/-/releases/v0.21.0 @purism #linuxonmobile #mobile #gnu #linux #gnome #purism #librem5 #phosh #floss #wayland
This time on the podcast, @dos from @purism talks about his Die Hard GNU/Linux User On Phones life. How he's developing lots of great things for Phoc/Phosh, the Librem 5 and how he implemented his personal dream of shrinking windows that he had since the Openmoko days.

The #scale19x memory that will stick with me most is when an unopened soda can left in front of the projector exhaust vent exploded in the middle of my talk like a gunshot, shooting a geyser of soda in the air. I'm going to get so much mileage out of that story.
