Congratulations to @PINE64 for the #pinephonepro, the new device has a lot of potential (support GLES 3.2, Vulkan, OpenCL), maybe Linux phone games soon?

It's also mindblowing that they managed to sneak the #pinebookpro SoC into a device.

If you see this when updating your device today (running Arch Linux ARM on @PINE64 #PinePhone / #PineTab):

:: Starting full system upgrade...
:: Replace linux-pine64 with pine64/linux-megi? [Y/n]
:: Replace linux-pine64-headers with pine64/linux-megi-headers? [Y/n]

Allow it to do so, we've renamed our kernel package. Once update is done, you can reboot as normal.

Improvements for those of us who run #phosh daily on their #librem5:
- the media player allows to skip in songs/podcasts (by @ollieparanoid)
- headphones show a different icon
- music player gets muted on headphone unplug

While Mobian does not directly support running #Android applications, it seems that some users find running them via #waydroid on the #pinephone surprisingly nice. Our wiki has some installation instructions if you want to try it out.

@FreePietje You're looking at the flashback picture of the Pinephone (original) announcement ;)

The team at @LinusTech@twitter.com reviewed our newly launched #Fairphone 4 to uncover exactly what makes the Fairphone different. From tech specs to fair specs – this review covered it all 📱🌿

Playing with GNOME OS Nightly and some of the core apps already ported to GTK4.

GNOME 42 is going to be so good 🚀

In 2011, Arne (left) and Matthias (right) started working on Tutanota. Today we can offer not just the most secure mailbox, but also a fully encrypted address book and a zero-knowledge calendar. Stay tuned for more! 😀🥳

Today I wanted to find a way to watch IPTV on my #Pinephone.

After multiple tests, I had the best experience with MPV combined with mpv-iptv (https://github.com/gthreepw00d/mpv-iptv)

People vs Big Tech is gaining momentum. Join our fight together with Amnesty International for a better, a more private Internet! 💪

I was quite shocked when I recently logged into Discord and it asked me to enter my school email to get connected with different Discord pages tied to the college that I'm attending. How would Discord know I'm in currently enrolled in college, what type of information are they collecting to know that information?
