Thanks, @Tay0!
Yeah it's hard to make a definitive list of names in the podcast if it changes so often. You tried, don't worry about it 😋
@calebccff ah too late for the poll. I'd have voted for the top one, I like that it's similar to the osk-sdl animation. But the other one isn't bad either.
Got a chance to talk to Miles Alan about his amazing projects:
* (Early days of) #Sxmo
* framebufferphone: new UI
* Mepo: new map app for Sxmo, fbp, Phosh, possibly PlaMo & more
* Why he likes #zig and #oilshell

It is refreshing and motivating to listen to @ollieparanoid reminding us of the "what" and the "why" of being involved with #linux on #mobile. It is easy to get lost in technicalities, bugs, performance issues, lack of applications and miss the point.
Linux Mobile vs. The Social Dilemma
As FOSS on mobile community, let's do our part to fix the many negative effects of social media and its hostile design patterns. We could become the prime example of how to treat users with respect. To not only give them control over their phone, but also over their attention. From design choices in the operating systems and apps to the platforms we choose to communicate about development.
