@debconf That was a great presentation, thanks @agx .

I've been daily driving phosh on my pinephone (pmOS) for months now, and I think the feature I am most looking forward to is for convergence mode to remember how I had my displays configured when I connect a display. I always disable the built-in display when I hook my phone up to my nexdock, it would be great if the device remembered my preference and just reconfigured it as I last had it when connected.

@mntmn Hey, I know your company already seems to be super busy cranking out great products, but I have another product idea that I think would be great in your lineup.

In short I would recommend making a portable USB battery pack, utilizing LiFePo4 technology. Basically reuse some of the reform tech (set of 4 LiFePO4 cells + charger/controller + OLED system controller). If like the reform, the cells were replacable it would be to my knowlege the first of its kind.

Hey, here's a question for the world. I have been daily driving a running (22.06.1) and most everything works perfectly. The only exception I have had is with bluetooth. Currently I am able to connect bluetooth headphones but they disconnect after playing less than a second of audio. Has anybody had better success? Am I missing the installation of some package that just makes it all work? Thanks in advance everyone!

@tuxdevices @shiftphones @Fairphone I've been daily driving my pinephone for over half a year now and its been great. I agree with your rankings too.

I think the Librem 5 would be higher up the rankings if only people got the phones they ordered already. As for me, I've been waiting 3.5 years for mine to arrive. I'm don't plan to cancel my order as Purism does important work, but I must admit that the pine phone pro coming out, it does sting a bit.

@devrtz @trregeagle @kyle @purism They are ever so slightly different. Super+A puts the text search in focus. So you can start typing your app then use arrow down to tansfer focus to the grid and fire it up. Super+S puts the open app slider in focus so that you can immediately use left/right arrows to switch beteen apps.

@devrtz @trregeagle @kyle @purism I use my pinephone with a nexdock almost every day. Just in case you don't know already. There are two great hotkey combinations in phosh, Super+A and Super+S. The first opens the tray for launching new apps. The second opens the tray for easy task switching. Learning those hotkey combos in phosh dramatically improved my experience while in convergence mode.

@ebassi I've got it on my pinephone, but unfortunately all of my music files are mp4 files. Either way, I'm stoked to have another option out there and I can't wait to see what's gotten everybody so excited. Keep up the good work!

@linmob Oof, that vulnerabillity looks pretty bad. So you thinks its worth it to move to bitkorgis firmware instead? Do all the calling, texting, and whatnot work with his new firmware? Thanks in advance!

@craftyguy Using a pinephone here. Recently switched away from pmOS on account of wanting to use convergence mode and it not working well or at all there. Currently using Manjaro, but did enjoy pmOS. Will probably switch back to pmOS once it works there.

What is the best Linux mobile desktop environment? Boost for larger sample size.

@agx Awesome work! I'm still waiting on my L5, but I did just recently order a nexdock anyhow. I'm sure that any distro running phosh will benefit, even if I have to use a pine phone for the time being...

A future with this sort of convergence looks amazing. Thank you for always working to upstream the code!

Linux running on RISC-V on MNT RKX7! A completely* open computer down to the CPU gateware.

* the only wart is that it needs Vivado's synthesize/place+route tools to build the gateware source for Kintex-7

it's real: the first assembled MNT RKX7. an open hardware kintex-7 fpga SoM with many peripherals for MNT Reform (or other projects).

@nitrokey Hey NitroKey, as a #postmarketOS dev this honestly gets me a bit worried. I've seen several companies jumping on the "Linux on mobile" bandwagon without realizing what makes the PinePhone and Librem 5 so great: mainline Linux kernel support.

Please make sure that if you make a Linux-based phone, it'll either ship with mainline support or has at least work going to it to make that happen in the future!
