Librem 5 is now $999 (a $300 Savings)! Due primarily to the overwhelming demand for the Librem 5, we were able to lower our component costs and are now able to pass that savings onto new customers.

With the Librem 5 just hitting shipping parity and Purism holding stock for new purchases, it was time for an updated review of the tremendous progress our team has made with PureOS for the Librem 5 and Liberty Phone with Made in USA Electronics. Here we will talk about the good, bad, and lasting effects of PureOS on the Liberty Phone and Librem 5.

An article on @mobian on phones was published in the print edition of dutch #linuxmag.nl! 💓
Subtitled: "Use Debian on your mobile phone"
Thanks to @martijnbraam for telling us!
Nice, apparently I was not completely unproductive yesterday during #DebConf23
I **did** upload the latest #confy after having helped upgrading blueprint-compiler (the required version was bumped) in #Debian .
The #gtk4 version looks absolutely beautiful, but see for yourself in the screencast I just did on my #Librem5 (no hw acccelerated video encoding yet, so that's why its full fps).
This is the sort of app that makes it an absolute joy #daily #driving #phosh !
phosh 0.31.0 is out 🚀📱:
Lots of fixes in #phoc ➕ better xdg-activation ➕ less CPU usage ➕ animations on tiling/max
#phosh now supports the tablet-mode of convertibles (based on work by Jonathan Hall)
p-m-s allows to configure the notification priority for waking up the screen (thanks to Suraj Kumar Mahto).
libcall-ui switched to GTK4 thanks to @antonok.
Check out the full release notes at https://phosh.mobi/releases/rel-0.31.0/

#Librem5
Now that I have a printer that can print flexible filaments again, I've been able to try out a few TPU cases for my Librem 5 (I modified a Librem 5 slim model to remove most of the back). I tried printing face up and face down with supports to see what worked best for my printer.
I think I'm leaning toward the red case, although I do have some old black Ninjaflex I might try out later.
Read why "Web Environment Integrity" is terrible, and why we must vocally oppose it now. Google's latest maneuver, if we don't act now to stop it, threatens our freedom to explore the Internet with browsers of our choice: https://u.fsf.org/40a #EndDRM #Enshittification #Google #WebStandards #DefectiveByDesign
switching to the #librem5 was one of the most liberating decisions this year. Even with all the little earlier adopter issues and inconveinces. I have developed a lot of tricks, workarounds and solutions. Wonder if I should write a blog post about them..
Awesome!
Some exciting news:
With the help of a tester (thanks kyeh!), #mobilelinux though vvmd/vvmplayer ( https://gitlab.com/kop316/vvmplayer ) finally supports Visual Voicemail on all major US carriers!
If you have an MVNO on any of the major carrier, you should be able to easily check if the parent settings work for you. If they do, *please* make an MR in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mobile-broadband-provider-info so we can officially support more carriers!
This is a weird request, but I figure the worst I can get for it is silence. I'm totally #blind and have very bad hearing. To set up a device through its inaccessible software, I'm in need of a sighted person for about an hour and a half to two hours who can access a computer remotely, speaks and reads English, and can describe images and graphs. The person needs to be quite patient with follow-up questions, needs to be willing to repeat if needed, as well as be able to click on items and describe what happens on the screen. The person needs to be fairly detail oriented because some of the images appear to have arrows and other ways to expand them, according to the manual. Though I'm happy to be reasonable, I have no clue how much to offer as payment, this is my first request of this kind. I'm posting it because I know we have some blind people here who may be able to point me towards someone who has done this before and may be willing to do it for such a short period. Boosts welcome, indeed, they're appreciated. #hearingimpaired #software #A11Y #accessibility #remote
