Are there any people using #LinuxMobile (#mobian, #postmarketos, #ubports, maybe on #pinephone or #librem5) at #eh22 @linuxmobile ?

@cas @agx I am using my OnePlus 6 with postmarkeOS as daily driver nowadays. And I follow the development of the oroject since over 3 years.
Currently I am in the process of mainlining the Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e my self and I can see clearly now how much work and effort has been spend on the project.
I just wan't to say thanks for all the hard work, you and the whole team, spend to bring the project where it is today! And it is getting better every day!
@agx gonna be celebrating 5 years of #postmarketOS on the OnePlus 6 in may, i did a lil comparison of the state of things back in 2020 when it first got up and running and the difference is absolutely wild. I think a lot of people dont realise just how much progress has been made -- and we definitely aren't stopping now :D
Fairphone 5 is getting reeeeeeally close to 100% on postmarketOS, this is exciting!!
Thinking of trying #postmarketOS on my #PinebookPro.
I didn't even know you could run it as a desktop OS.
Supposedly the installer supports #FullDiskEncryption, which is... "poggers," I think the kids say.
one of the name proposals for #postmarketOS is "femboyOS" and I just have to say: I see you, I hear you <3
Version 0.2 of my eSIM Manager app is out!
We've got significant UI improvements alongside many other additions such as an app icon, providing environment variables for lpac via the command line, error handling, eUICC 'notification' handling, viewing of eUICC chip info and appstream metainfo data!
I have to reference #gitlab merge request and issue numbers a lot while doing dev stuff for #postmarketOS and #alpinelinux (like for giving to our mrtest tool), so I made a simple bookmarklet that will copy this number to my clipboard:
https://gitlab.postmarketos.org/-/snippets/10
Bookmarklets are neat!
After many months, we finally have an upstreamable path for merging /usr in postmarketOS and hence Alpine! Still lots of work to be done, I just ruined one of my test installations LOL. But it's so cool to see it become real: https://gitlab.postmarketos.org/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/merge_requests/6389
@craftyguy talking about #postmarketos at the local Portland Linux Group here in #portland.
@postmarketOS omg!!
I was excited to hear the features, then disappointed to hear it's backed by proprietary libraries from #Gboard, but then excited again to learn this demonstrates the ability to run stuff from #LineageOS and its forks/ancestors without having to run a full-blown emulator! And not a normal app but a integrated subsystem no less
If #postmarketOS were human, this would be a true #cyborg (in a good way)
Nexus 5 (lg-hammerhead) joins the group again after reflashing #postmarketOS on it. I set all these up to make sure #TouchpadEmulator autostart works with screen rotation on all of them. I released a new version with minor changes to get this working and updated my Alpine merge request.
Das PinePhone Pro ist ein reines Spielzeug, aber die entwickelte Software laeuft! Das Smartphone ist Meilenweit von einer taeglichen Benutzung entfernt, aber wenn die richtige Hardware und dazu die Treiber vohanden waeren, dann koennte das eine Alternative werden. Deshalb bin ich sehr erfreut und ueberrascht wie gut die Entwicklung voran schreitet. *weiter so* ich freu mich drauf.
#postmarketOS family photo!
I need to reimage my Nexus 5 apparently, it didn't make the photo because it's stuck at lk2nd. Also my Galaxy S5 and Note 3 I should revisit.

@postmarketOS As daily driving a phone with #PostmarketOS I can't thank you enough folks for all the efforts so far !
