Oh, my dusty Librem5!
I really need to update my Librem5 that is sadly gathering dust on my desktop and to follow Anbox on Byzanthium and Anyone Successfully Run WayDroid on Librem 5? (the answer to this is yes!)

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (32/2023): Summer: #FrOSCon slides and not much more
Time flew by in my talk and I didn't manage to talk about everything that I originally had planned, but it was still pretty fun and I hope you enjoyed it as well!
Have a look at the slides here:

and the recording here:

Directly afterwards we had the #phosh Get Together. If memory serves we must've been between 20 to 30 people (?) and lively discussions where had around all things #phosh and #MobileLinux
Thanks for coming!

Ich hoffe Mal das nicht auffällt das mir langweilig ist. Wir müssen halt warten...
Egal, ich schaue mir jetzt Mal den Vortrag von @devrtz an.
Last week parts of the #MobileLinux community got together at #FrOSCon and, dare I say, had a great time in our "FOSS on Mobile" devroom 🌈
Throughout two days we had some hacking, lightning talks, workshops and BoFs!
Saturday morning I had the pleasure of welcoming around 5 people (at 10:00 in the morning!)
to the room.

Looks like phones with hardware kill-switches running a fully open-source OS will become increasingly popular here! 😢

Back from #XtremeFest where I volunteered as a bartender for the past 3 nights: heaven for #PunkRock/#HxC lovers, human-sized (~2k people each night), with a small lake/beach for swimming and recovering during the afternoons! Likely one of the best festivals out there if you're into this kind of music! 🤟 🎸
Oh, and yes, we also have a bar inside a skateboard bowl! 🛹
@devrtz @jayreding @mobian You can't claim to be a universal OS without phone support nowadays, see https://media.ccc.de/v/froscon2022-2797-is_there_hope_for_linux_on_smartphones - so running it on your phone is the new normal.

Australia - the country with some of the worst surveillance laws - sees a turn in attitudes among its citizens. More and more people demand better privacy protection from companies as well as legislators.

@devrtz I've been there myself: with any live demo you (rightly) ought to be focussed on the audience rather than any unexpected problem solving. But your demo was very effective: it showed it worked, but also that it's proper bleeding-edge stuff.
@devrtz Great talk; loved it! A pretty comprehensive tour and snapshot of Linux on Mobile. Despite the camera glitch, I particularly liked the demo. Wish I could have been there in person; thanks for sharing.
@devrtz Thank you for looking into our app!
You are correct; Flare must be linked to a primary Signal device (support for using it as a primary device is planned).
So if you want to use just a Linux phone, then you'll need to link Flare to signal-cli.
Hope that helps!
Hello world!
We're a group dedicated to creating beautiful apps for your #mobilelinux devices. All our apps are built with #gtk4 and #libadwaita, and are #adaptive for both desktop and mobile #linux devices!
On this account we will post announcements for new releases and new features of our apps, which you can find over at https://gitlab.com/schmiddi-on-mobile and https://github.com/Schmiddiii.
This account is run by @julianfairfax, on behalf of Schmiddi and the Schmiddi on Mobile group.
@Anachron Take a look at #Librem5: it's NOT surveiling you at all (challenging but doable), it's somewhat repairable (a bit hard), but it doesn't last that long (hard if you want the other two).

Disclaimer: I've been working on the Librem 5 for @purism for the past 4 years and counting.

We just recently discussed signal at #phosh's community get together at #FrOSCon. Flare and the desktop client (registration via signal-cli) were mentioned there. For questions best join https://matrix.to/#/#linuxphoneapps:matrix.org .
