@kjoo Yeah... about that ...

@craftyguy @alf @linmob @tuxdevices @postmarketOS
Currently I'm running "20221123-0638-postmarketOS-v22.06-phosh-18-purism-librem5-installer.img.xz" -- "megapixels-purism" wasn't working and other than that I'm systematically going through packages to see what is available and working

When using a USB Dock and mouse opening apps and getting around is surprisingly quick.

I'm building a list of my favorite packages so I can pmbootatrap my own install image if possible eventually.

So far I much prefer #postmarketos to #pureos -- I am looking forward to trying #gnome for #librem5 #linuxphone too.

Some apps are broken like Gnome Maps, Pure Maps, Gnome Weather and a few "out of bounds" for the screen size in portrait mode. I am not sure if postmarketos needs to update them or what.

#lollypop for music works great. #portfolioand #nautilus for file browsing have improved since I tried them on #pinephone. #giara isn't yet working maybe I need a new version. Also ive yet to setup #tootle. #geary is bitter sweet, it is adequate for email but was hard to setup until I used a mouse. I love #gnomecalculator and #gedit for mobile has grown on me.

I was having trouble setting up #nextcloud -client but maybe when I try again it will work. #nextcloud in #gnomesettings worked fine and populated my contacts just fine.

I wasn't able to get Gnome Calendar working. #firefox -esr worked better than #epiphany but I need epiphany for webapps on the app screen for sites like https://windy.com and https://web.pulse point.org

I'm using #starship console just fine. #pavucontrol

#gnomeclocks is great! #pidgin not so much #rhythmbox not so much as it goes out of bounds.

I've also still yet to find a good video player, a equiv for youtube/newpipe and I have to give gnome-sound-recorder another try for audio note taking.

All in all it has come a long way from my initial research via PinePhone PMOS.

I love that there are also terminal apps like #bashtop too -- I wouldn't even mind having some .desktop launchers in the App Menu to load full screen versions of those and #htop -- certainly there's room for #neofetch ricers to make some cool #unixporn rices -- its going to be an interesting year for the linux phone space for sure -- so glad I finally have a #librem5 to poke around and do some research.

The big setback for me right now is figuring out a good #element client for #matrix -- I tried #neochat but it isn't fetching decryption keys -- #fractal froze -- I have to spend more time poking around.

And then of course as indicated by #purism "most wanted apps" on their website a #signal app of some sort or android version of it on the phone would be really important as SMS and MMS are not really reliable or robust.

More poking to do, thanks for the info about 22.12 -- installing pmos with the wiki was fairly straight foreward, slightly rough around the edges but not even close to hard mode in the #linux world.

@alf @linmob @tuxdevices @postmarketOS this one was pretty straight foreward you just download a image and did it to emmc #librem5 #linuxphone #postmarketos

@etam good to know, did it fall on its back? Is the screen okay?

@thunderbird I'll bet that font size easy placement will help a lot of people, especially 4k users with large monitors and no scaling.

I look forward to compose being a tab someday and general simplifications, maybe a revamp of the search feature so users can be more effective navigating large mailboxes & multiple accounts.

All the updates this year have been great to put to use! Thank you guys :)

@ElIrregular gabe newell sure is looking different these days #valve #steam

@DeveloperMemes Isn't Atom dead now?

@Fenriz It's terrible, you wouldnt like it, better send it to me instead

@goz @brandont on a Friday? Sounds like risky business ;)

New Rammstein music video and as usual a masterpiece.

Goodbye

[Verse 1]
Only death lasts forever
It whispers under the pine branch
Must draw everything into its darkness
Even the sun will burn out

[Pre-Chorus]
But don't worry, we are with you
One last time, so we sing

[Chorus]
Adieu, goodbye, see you again!
You have to go the last way alone
One last song, one last kiss
No miracle will happen
Adieu, goodbye, see you again!
I had a nice time with you
[Verse 2]
You quietly rise from life
The soul goes on a quiet journey
Flesh perishes, spirit will rise
The being will surrender to death (Yes)

[Pre-Chorus]
In the end, you are all alone
But we will be with you

[Chorus]
Adieu, goodbye, see you again!
You have to go the last way alone
One last song, one last kiss
No miracle will happen
Adieu, goodbye, see you again!
I had a nice time with you

[Bridge]
Everyone dies alone (All alone)
But you will always be with us

[Chorus]
Adieu, goodbye, see you again!
You have to go the last way alone
One last song, one last kiss
No miracle will happen
Adieu, goodbye, see you again!
I had a nice time with you

@oneguynick speaking of which when is #myspace going to join #fediverse

@PixelDroid @PascalCGN I've used the app for months and overall its pretty useful and nice.

Though, when I often find a post I REALLY like I checkout peoples profiles and then will star or bookmark my favorite content & follow.

I often loose my place in the feed and have to start from the top -- so I find using Brave and turning the website into a "App" a little better as I can simply [ open profiles in a new tab ]. Favorite & Close when done and resume my crawl through the feed.

So I guess if I had #feedback for #pixelfed and #pixeldroid it would be -- I need to more easily be able to "Seek" or jump around in the feed -- or at least not loose my spot.

If I could Jump/Seek to a specific date or optionally break it up into [ Pages ] of say 50 - 100 posts that would make it easier to get back to where I was and also reduce bandwidth and data usage for me and the server.

I would also like to subscribe to #hashtags (which i can do on the webapp iirc) and have timelines where my content is curated according to my subscriptions. It would be cool to be able to name my Timelines -- maybe "Work", " Sports" and nest hashtag subscriptions like #skating, #workout under one and #coding under another so I don't need to have separate accounts to have different feeds.

/#feedback

@M0streng0 @Tay0@fosstodon.org To a degree. If you don't have GApps sideloaded then its a significant enough difference. However I did read that each device now has a Unique Advertising ID -- its worth looking into if this is removed.

At this time there really is no practicle answer for people wanting freedom & independence on smartphone, even the modem is on the same board as the CPU which is a threat vector. All smartphone modems in the world are made by 2 companies.

@FediTips hopefully this gets funnier as 2021 gets farther away but the shell shock of this is too real.
