There is lots of good stuff. Look at for example #LinuxMobile #Phosh #PinePhone #Librem5 @linmob @phosh

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.
phosh 0.46.0 is out :
There's fixes and improvements, check out the full release notes at https://phosh.mobi/releases/rel-0.46.0/ for details or see
for a short
to everyone who contributed to this release.
#phosh #librem5 #pinephone #gtk #wlroots #gnome #linux #mobile #LinuxMobile
1/N
what about #furiphone #pinephone or #purism #librem
also wondering if one shouldn't take to the pawnshops with a printout from https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/ - at least being able to flash a non-shit (and optionally degoogled) os would be a decent baseline
Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (13/2025): Crossing Platforms, Breaking Barriers
Initial release of the #immich upload daemon is ready for people to use and report the tons of issues it probably has lol. You can find it here https://github.com/luigi311/immich_upload_daemon Feel free to open any issues/PR. Its still missing the charging only option but the networking features are there so you can set wifi only and/or SSID checking and you can even just check for metered connections. Mostly developed on my and for my #FLX1 via remote vscode.

The small N900 screen was good, since a resistive-screen stylus controlled all those linux app buttons so easily. No finger-width spacing! The stylus was simple plastic, easy to replace.

I read makers saying they don't want to make room for a stylus, but honestly I would be willing to hold mine on with a rubberband, to get that level of touch-screen control again.
Dear @Mer__edith and the the amazing @signalapp team,
After the last update, the Signal "desktop app" is requiring us to launch the mobile app - however, many of us do not have the Android or any other "mobile" version of the Signal app any more.
We are a large (by our standards) group of #Linux phone users, and your "desktop" app is our "mobile" app : )
Our previous phones on which #SignalApp was initially activated was an Android or Apple device and we have since then completely migrated to #Linuxphones. Some of us may have registered Signal on #signalcli, Flare, #Molly, Signal Android in #WayDroid, etc.
The #mobileLinux community is growing - we have members spanning a good number of projects and devices, e.g.
- @purism #Librem5 and #LibertyPhone running #Debian-based #PureOS #GnuLinux, #Alpine-based #PostmarketOS or #Mobian,
- @PINE64 #Pinephone and PP Pro running #ManjaroARM, #SailfishOS, etc.
- @furilabs #FLX1 running #Droidian-based #FuriOS,
- a wide variety of Android phones (including OnePlus 6, Google Pixel 3, #Fairphone 4 & 5) running #Alpine-based @postmarketOS ,
- @volla , #Fxtec and #Brax3 devices running #UbuntuTouch by @ubports,
- devices running @mobian which is part of #Debian project, etc.
[Apologies to any project I may have failed to include - you are all appreciated]

Since #immich still has a lot of time before we get a usable #mobilelinux client that would help us backup our images easily. I am working on a daemon that will upload images automatically. What features would you be interested in?
Current ideas so far
1. Wifi only
2. SSID checking
3. Charging only
4. Systemd service for autostart and logging
5. Specifying paths
Thank you #gameDad, #pinePhone, #eReader (#butSpecificallyAnOldEReaderWithButtonsThatDoesNotGoOnTheInternet) for being nice fidgety little devices that can go in my pockets and bring me harmless joys throughout the day
Aw thanks Dan, I didn't expect
Not you
Unfortunately, cameractrl can't control the focus or exposure at all on the original #PINE64 #PinePhone. The resulting image is blurry.
Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (12/2025): GNOME 48 and other goodies
Thanks for another interesting roundup! Great to see all the work happening on smooth, high end video playback, even on the Pinephone! Also interesting to see what #Liberux are working on. Hopefully the product will match the promises! We need more decent spec Linux phones! (Preferably at non-insane prices but hey, I'm prepared to pay a premium if the hardware is worth it).
@linmob I don't understand too much of IT, but #set_of_patches sounds a reasonable way to build a #Linux_Phone to me, on #pinephone or else.

Look at that: If you dislike systemd and like debian packages, but want Phosh instead of hildon (on Maemo Leste), Movuan has you covered:

Basically, that's a #devuan for your #PinePhone
