We're talking basically from bootloader, kernel drivers all the way up in userspace, be that wayland protocol bits for input, libhandy/libadwaita, work on invidivual applications and packaging in #Debian and #design work in #GNOME

If you take all of that into account the equation changes quite a bit!

Also: It's hard to actually get manufacturers to talk to you (and not ignore your emails) when you're a small fish in the sea!

3/3

@alphasixtyfive @chiefgyk3d

However you might want to consider some additional factors:

Our software developers write #FOSS software and very much like to feed themselves and their families ;)

And while we fortunely build on top of a lot of great projects like @gnome @debian (and lots of others)
**A LOT** of work still had to be done and all of that is being done in the open. Our developers try hard to do the right thing™ and upstream everything.

Sure, it is a lot of money and we understand how one might come to this conclusion when **only** looking at the hardware specs.

You might also find it fun that you can switch to a different tty.
@devrtz had to do some last-minute fixing of his #Librem5 before giving a presentation at #DebConf23 😎 a couple of days ago

Running MM with --debug, invoking `mmcli -G DEBUG` and grabbing some logs that way could perhaps help to close https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mobile-broadband/ModemManager/-/issues/253

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.
