I preordered a Manjaro #PinePhone. What do I need to know for #Linux app development?

#LineageOS w/ #fdroid (no gapps) is such a premium experience compared to bloated, ad-infested, notification-ridden, cloudwashed stock android.
I lost the second camera on this samsung but it's totally worth it.

Tux is posing in his big shoe for the @PINE64 #PinePhone camera on #postmarketOS. Oh and the selfie cam works too! It's a bit slow and needs more work of course, but #megapixels from @martijnbraam is a good start. It's in postmarketOS edge in a few hours, and in ~1 day on stable.

RISC-V PCs may be a lot closer than I thought:

What URL/IP do you ping to verify you are connected to the internet?
I tend to ping 1.1.1.1 because cloudflare is always up and responsive, but other ideas would be good.

Hi all! Was wondering if I could plump the depths of our communal experience for some information? I've got a job interview with Red Hat in a week and I'm interested to hear if anyone here has had any exposure to the company in the past and any thoughts on them? Any help would be great! 😁
Not sure I like this:

Better than anything I've ever seen on Linux. I always wanted a row of cascading folders right through my file manager while everything else is in a grid
Since dual booting Linux on the computer I bought for school I no longer am super relient on my x200 and could manage without it for a number of weeks.
Anyone know of a good libreboot service in the US that is still operating? The one on eBay I've looked at before is no longer there.
