A new @ManjaroARM #Phosh release, #PlasmaMobile tarballs, #Sailfish 4.0 on PinePhone and more!
#LinuxPhones

With #Mozilla removing the SSB feature from #Firefox 86, I've explored the --kiosk option and the webapp feature of #Anglefish, the #PlasmaMobile browser on my #PinePhone. Would that make an interesting blog post or video?

With slight edits (cutting out silent parts where I read the chat) and boosted (but not cleaned-up) audio you can now re-watch yesterdays #LINMOBlive 3 on Odysee: https://odysee.com/@linmob:3/linmoblive3-librem5-and-pinephone:4

It's mostly about the #Librem5 and a little bit about #Manjaro #PlasmaMobile being the new default OS for the #PinePhone.

I really should do something different, but ...

Join me in about an hour (8 pm UTC) for a live stream about #Librem5, #PinePhone and more!

(YouTube only this time, I'll try to change that for the next one.)

Quick announcement:
I am planning a live stream featuring Librem 5 impressions (and maybe some "Librem 5 vs PinePhone" fun) this Wednesday (February 17th) at 8pm UTC.

Ideas, questions, suggestions welcome!

Since I did not note when I unplugged my #Librem5 yesterday (and I did not use it yet today), I can't report on the battery life for these days. I will continue to do so on monday, maybe running a different OS.

#Librem5 battery life on
#postmarketOS (5.9.16-librem5.2), day 5:

Today I used it for all my social media again. I disconnected from the charger at 8:40 am, and the phone had shut down when I tried to use it after doing something the Librem 5 can't (taking a nap) at 4:50 pm. I used #Cawbird, #Tootle and #Giara, and #Nheko and also Firefox. The modem was on for the entire time, WiFi in the morning and after 2 pm.

#postmarketOS (5.9.16-librem5.2), day 4:

Today I used it for all my social media. I disconnected from the charger at 8:28 am, battery lasted until 4:46 pm (3%) when I plugged it in. I used #Cawbird, #Tootle and #Giara. Also I used #Nheko a bit during lunch break and checked my email in #Geary. The modem was on for the entire time, WiFi only from 1pm forward.

#postmarketOS (5.9.16-librem5.2), day 3: (Sorry for not reporting earlier)

Light use, disconnected from the charger at 8:29 am, battery lasted until 4:49 pm (4%) when I plugged it in. I updated packages once, installed three flatpaks and browsed the web a bit (mainly "Hacker News", because my Fedora video (Odysee) went a bit viral there). I also used Nheko a bit during lunch break. The modem was on for the entire time, WiFi only during the install of the flatpak apps.

This is a fun new Weather app, written in #rust with #GTK4 and #libadwaita, it's called Weather Mobile, using #OpenWeatherAPI

The end of Community Editions, a new #SailfishOS release, #Lisperati1000 and more!

Today I gave #Nheko (0.8.1) another try (on #postmarketOS edge running on the #Librem5), and with two little tweaks in the apps settings (Touchscreen mode on and Show buttons in timeline off) it's the best #matrix client I ever used on #LinuxPhones.

caerbannog (https://git.sr.ht/~craftyguy/caerbannog) is a pass client with a really nice icon. Do I need to mention it's written in Monty err Python, or was that obvious? (I don't use pass, so I could not test it a lot.)

"ERROR: Could not find dependency 'uuu' in any aports folder or APKINDEX. See: <https://postmarketos.org/depends>". Hm. 'uuu' is installed on my system, now what do I need to do that pmbootstrap flasher works with it (or it's own system)? #postmarketOS #librem5 cc @craftyguy

Today I finally managed to add 5 more apps to #LINMOBapps (https://linmobapps.frama.io). The least known of them is likely Master Key (https://gitlab.com/guillermop/master-key/), a password management app:
