10 Best #FOSS Graphical #Mastodon Clients

https://www.linuxlinks.com/best-free-open-source-graphical-mastodon-clients/

the #blendos v4 #alpha is out! (thanks @ruds)

#linux #release

details: https://blog.blendos.co/blendos-v4-alpha

install guide: https://blog-9b6.pages.dev/blog/2023/11/blendos-v4-install-guide/

After building the #blendos preview #docs with #materialformkdocs, we now have to build a new v4 ISO because of a pkgbuild mirror change from tar.gz to tar.zst. Rudra said he was gonna build a new ISO and has not responded since. v4 currently cannot be installed.

This is wonderful. Rudra is usually absent for a while due to school and Ubuntu Unity, but this is one of the downsides of that.

(the docs are at https://blend-docs-material.pages.dev for now if you even care)

Very happy with my new #PineTime #smartwatch. Shown in the photo is my preferred watch face style out of the default available options, a retro Casio face. Thank you to @PINE64 and the wider open hardware and software community! I'm going to test out the sleep tracking tonight while connected to #Gadgetbridge and upgrade the firmware as soon as I get a chance.

Hello, community!

We need #openhardware with #bluetooth so we can link them it to #MyGNUHealth.
Currently we have @pine64eu smartwatch, but we'd love to integrate scales, glucometers, blood pressure monitors...
Just reply to this toot or send us a message if you know of any device. We'd love to test them!🤗

I'm enjoying the good weather and testing the integration of #PineTime #InfiniTime in #MyGNUHealth !

@PINE64 @meanmicio

My #Pine64 #Pinetime is still going strong after multiple years of daily wear as a diesel mechanic.

I just found out about #watchful https://github.com/lulf/watchful - a much needed Rust firmware for #PineTime built on Embassy. ​

"Telegram has launched a pretty intense campaign to malign Signal as insecure, with assistance from Elon Musk. The goal seems to be to get activists to switch away from encrypted Signal to mostly-unencrypted Telegram."

There's a simple way to test cutting-edge @GNOME software!

GNOME OS is an experimental Linux distribution, shipping the latest GNOME desktop, core applications, and stack.

Read more about Codethink's ongoing work with GNOME and sysupdate:

https://www.codethink.co.uk/articles/2024/GNOME-OS-systemd-sysupdate/

Very happy and proud of this collaboration between @codethink @gnome and @sovtechfund

https://www.codethink.co.uk/articles/2024/GNOME-OS-systemd-sysupdate/

Our goal is to make GNOME OS a daily driver for QA and finalize the migration, but this work will be fundamental to the future of all secure image based / immutable Linux distributions.
