Reform 2 aluminum parts arrived. feels incredible

"Yet Another #Librem5 and #PinePhone Comparison" is an in-depth technical comparison of the two devices by #postmarketOS developer @martijnbraam

You can read it here: https://tuxphones.com/yet-another-librem-5-and-pinephone-linux-smartphone-comparison/ #linux

we will hand-assemble (incl PCBA) a very small number of MNT Reform 2 beta laptops with full aluminum body in January 2020 outside of the campaign. Price 1500 EUR. If you're interested: lukas@mntre.com

also works with etnaviv 3d acceleration now!

@thibaultamartin @KekunPlazas *postmarketOS, only the OS bit is capitalized 😉

We do indeed support Phosh as well, although personally I do indeed prefer Plasma Mobile. But let's not go into my opinions of that whole affair here, it isn't relevant. The point is that the Librem 5 effort shouldn't be insulted, as it's still advancing Linux on Mobile, no matter what you think of it.

@KekunPlazas @purism @matrix Oh, but I can do that too!

Yesterday I received my #PinePhone from @PINE64! Today I had fun with it and postmarketOS, here are some photos:
- the default applications
- the Fractal @matrix client

It's a glorious time for Linux on mobile!

Yesterday I received my #Librem5 from @purism! Today I had fun with it, here are some photos:

It was an exciting week for the #Pursim team, shipping Librem 5s from the Birch batch to backers https://puri.sm/posts/librem-5-birch-shipping-announcement/ and reading your early impressions.

Your support and energy keeps us going!

Thank you for believing in the Librem 5 and our mission https://puri.sm/about/ #privacy #security #Librem5 #Linux

I love this post:

"When we first approached hardware manufacturers almost two years ago with this project most of them instantly said “No, sorry, impossible, we can not help you.”. Others warned us, that it could never work, that it was too complicated, “the industry does not do that” and so forth.

And yet here we are, later than we wanted, but we are actually shipping first hardware! It is possible but it comes at a price." #Librem5
