@fsf Lists the Librem 5 in its Giving Guide fsf.org/blogs/community/ethica The Purism Librem 5 cell phone is another exciting addition to the Giving Guide this year: we're giving it a tentative recommendation because the company has publicly committed to doing the right things for prioritizing user freedom and privacy. We also have evaluated and endorsed the operating system that the Librem 5 will run, the fully free PureOS, and the phone is designed for maximum privacy, security, and user freedom.

The first Librem 5's are starting to arrive 😀 This is the first batch that is shipping to customers - the Birch batch.

Below, linked from reddit, is the first public report that I know of where a customer received his/her Librem 5.

reddit.com/r/Purism/comments/e

We contributed 20 patches and 23 Reviewed-by or Tested-by tags towards 5.4 puri.sm/posts/purisms-contribu

Including: improvements to the Librem 5 devkit’s IMU and panel drivers, preparation for a mainline display stack and Librem 5 bug fixes

Just small update though no breakthroughs.

After sleepless nights we have still not manage to find the root cause. Even though we've done quite some gymnastics over this and tried many things.

So as they say, The Saga continues!

Developer Community: wut?

Microsoft: Hmm. How about you use our Visual Studio Online and push it to GitHub, both hosted on our computers, so that you don't have a local copy?

Developer Community: Yaay! Such innovation! Very cloud! Much wow! 🎉

Trump: Thou shall not use US services.

Developers: Where's my code? 😭
