Instead of using Google Analytics you can switch to this simple open source alternative called Umami.

#Convergence aka #Desktop mode works fine on both #smartphones for light tasks. But what is "light"? This is where they differ.
#Librem5 (left) smoothly plays two videos simultaneously (one of which is 60 fps), whereas #Pinephone is struggling with single 30 fps video.
Why? Librem 5 has 30% faster CPU clock speed, 140% faster RAM standard, roughly double the GPU performance. More details: https://forums.puri.sm/t/comparing-specs-of-upcoming-linux-phones.

@zwerg12 Amazing photo! I'm also in the process of discovering how to manage and process photos on Linux. Will have to checkout rawtherapee!
@reto That can be easily removed IF all you want to target is the mobile, but is a little more challenging if you want convergence: phone docked and used as a desktop. I have a few things I want to try with that:
- develop a plugin that lets the user manually turn off that bar on mobile
- perhaps make a smarter plugin that figures out when app is displaying on a mobile screen and automatically hide it but show on desktop
- plugin that lets flutter put native GNOME buttons on the native app bar
@linmob The only issue I ran into is that Librem5 has an older version of libgcrypt which still works but doesn't have a ".pc" file for it. I just manually created this file here: `/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libgcrypt.pc`
@linmob It's a recent development made possible by a software engineer from Sony in this PR: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/61221
I just followed the official flutter linux install docs doing a manually install by cloning flutter directly from github master: https://flutter.dev/docs/get-started/install/linux#install-flutter-manually
Can Librem 5 run Flutter linux desktop apps? Yep! I was able to successfully build and run my BodySculpting weightlifting workout app today on Librem 5 itself. Code once, build for Android, iOS, and Libremt5, how cool is that!
#phosh 0.8.0 is out 🚀 : https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/releases/v0.8.0
Changing output resolutions and scaling via GNOME Settings should now mostly work, system modal dialogs don't pop up on the lock screen anymore plus more fixes and i18n improvements. Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release!
While we had enabled power saving for the vivante gpu on the #librem5 since some time we couldn't power off the corresponding regulator (power supply) since the phone would hang then. Turns out we just didn't give it enough time to come back up. Fix is already merged into linux-next: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/?id=3b66e4a8e58a85af3212c7117d7a29c9ef6679a2
I've put together a short overview on #phosh and closely related components and how they play together: https://honk.sigxcpu.org/con/phosh_overview.html
GTK 4.0 is here! After four years of hard work from our dedicated developers, GTK 4.0 was released today. Some highlights from this release include media playback, drag-and-drop, and scalable lists and grids. Learn more about what's new in GTK 4.0: https://blog.gtk.org/
#phosh 0.7.0 is out 🚀 : https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/releases/v0.7.0
This features automatic media mounting, initial support for background XML, handling of per app `show-banners` notification setting and fixes for swipe window closing by @exalm@floss.social
It looks like a red rectangle... But it is a red rectangle that took me a whole day to program because I had to figure out how to plot something with Cairo inside of a GTK Box element that is not visible at the time of creating the plot... But now I understand how Cairo works 😅 I furthermore added my own formulas for calculating the position of the sun and the formulas for calculating the position of the milky way are now working correctly.
Hand Drawn 2D Animation with PureOS and Librem Laptops

"Professional animation is not just possible but ideal with free software, this story shares what is possible running PureOS, Librem laptops, and accessories."
@purism While fixing #convergence related issues in #phosh, #phoc and the kernel for the #librem5 I wanted things to be more automatic. So #phosh can now enable a 'docked' mode on screen plug: windows become moveable automatically (and get their close button back), #squeekboard gets disabled and there's a quick setting that lets you toggle that too:
