@linmob I wonder if linuxphoneapps.org/ could have a category for sxmo appscripts, so it's easier to discover cool stuff like this.

@mattj @mms A proper phone? Like one I can plug into the wall and set up on my mantle?

I managed to prove the HW is working thanks to some things here wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Als

So I guess just the config is wrong for my oneplus 6.

Audio on my daily driver running has had a major regression this week (maybe hardware problem?) and now I think I need to buy a different phone.

@linmob @droidian Went to the website and filled out the survey. Dissappointed that there were no questions about headphone jack/bluetooth [call] audio, microSD-card storage and booting from external storage, camera capabilities, or multi-sim.

While I believe there's room in the market for something between the pinephone(pro)/librem5 and the [popular used android phone with decent mobile linux support], I fear they'll be too close to the latter to stand out.

@craftyguy @bart I have kde-default-icon-theme and breeze-icons5... maybe there's a missing breeze-icons6 package?

@Idcrafter @linuxphoneapps Does anyone happen to know the name of the package on that provides icons for apps? It's not very usable with a bunch of blank ui elements.

@SrEstegosaurio @BrodieOnLinux It's an honest question: "how many versions of wlroots do we want to support at a time?" The space-saving benefit of using a distribution's packaging diminishes when each project relies on a different specific version of something. (in this case, it's wlroot's "fault" for unstable api/abi combined with slow release cadence, and I look forward to a hypothetical wlroots 1.x which will be good enough for all)

It's not too often that someone makes a video about something I did online. is a joy to contribute to, and I'm happy that they have the infrastructure to save people from needing to build it themselves.

here's another link for people like me who don't want to support monopolistic video platforms: bitchute.com/video/HhZ_HnqkJoo

@linuxphoneapps extra #6
What's an app that you regularly use that needs more love for mobile-friendliness: gPodder (probably should switch to different app), firefox (ublock extension controls don't work).

@linuxphoneapps Oh, I misanswered 2... I use gnome, terminal apps, and sxmo's dmenu-type apps.

@linuxphoneapps
1. Dino (with jmp.chat)
2. yes (sxmo-sway, but testing hyprland)
3. no
4. Organic Maps (it's not packaged in pmOS and I don't flatpak), and camera (Oneplus 6). Use a second device for organic maps and taking photos.
5. postmarketOS
6. What other devices do you use on a weekly basis? Laptop (see more lines of code, ugly webapps), wifi-only android phone(see #4), pinetime/infinitime feature watch (to tell the time, alarm clock)

@xabean I'm pretty sure Amazon uses (they often contribute long driveways), so if your orders are from amazon, fixing it in OSM should be good.

"You will sell more if you make it more like the pinephone + keyboard case." @mntmn Have you considered having less differentiation between your products and cheaper products? Might be a good business idea. \s

just an opinion; for folks trying promote their free software projects.

You don't need to trash talk other/previous free software projects that exist(ed) in the same area in order to promote your project.

@drewdevault does that include unmaintained projects using deprecated/removed functions?
