Initial support for booting the Librem 5 Phone has just landed in PostmarketOS!

WTF?! My non-rooted phone had #Google Maps pre-installed, but I only use #OSMand for navigation etc.
Yesterday, I walked to a local restaurant, without using my phone, and had lunch there before walking back.

So it tracked and calculated where I ate without even opening my phone or the app.
Definitely time for #Pinephone / #LibreM
