My experience with so far on the compared to Byzantium:

  • Most applications run much faster
  • The repository is obviously much more up to date
  • The modem wakes up much slower for incoming phone calls while in suspend. Some of the phone calls were not shown in the UI at all.
  • The micro SD Card reader has similar issues with suspend as with PureOS. Sometimes after supend the card can not be read anymore.

But right now I really love @mobian it is impressively snappy ❤️

If I understand this correctly, this should not affect me. I was using the weekly build which is based on Debian trixie. I can't find which kernel it is exactly uname just says 6.6-librem5

Ok seems like I just fucked up (my fault) Pure OS on my which was pre installed on the phone. So I will install a fresh distribution. What is your opinion: Should I use again because it (maybe) works best or should I try ? Has anyone tested them recently?

@crft But is Gnome mobile in a somewhat "stable" state already? I use the Librem 5 as my main device.

@tomasoqvist Are you using this phone as your main device? And is the crashing of the modem obvious? The modem on my L5 on PureOS sometimes crashes but the indicator icon at the top bar doesn't change. So I check my phone and it looks fine but I don't receive any incoming calls.

@tomasoqvist Sounds awesome thanks a lot! Then I will try mobian next :)

I just noticed that I am using the #Purism #Librem5 now for 7 months now as my main device and since 6 months I don't carry a backup device with me anymore even for business trips I only used the Librem 5.

@tseitr If I just want to look something up I use Gnome Maps. For navigation the only app I know which really works is Pure Maps.
However, GPS on the Librem 5 is still not fast and super accurate so I find it hard to really use it as a navigation system in the car.

@zwarf@social.anoxinon.de avatar

@leimon Yes, absolutely. Using the Librem 5 is still a lot of work and not trivial at all. My biggest issue is that it loses the mobile data connection way to often. For example during train rides or after waking up from suspend. But as you already said, I also don't plan to go back.

We have a PC at work running #Linux which controls an important detector and I was wondering if anyone ever made an update so I quickly checked.
The Linux Kernel is 2.6.18.

@cameronbosch I mean its like a museum but at work and still in use. But I can understand it never crashed so nobody ever cared 😂

@rwbaskette I think won't update this thing anymore 😅 I will replace it completely 😅
But maybe I try just for fun 😀

#PicPlanner Version 0.5.0 is out now on #Flathub.

The experience on the #Librem5 or in general on touch devices should be much better now.

What is new:

  • Using #GNOME runtime 45
  • The UI is much cleaner
  • French language support is added
  • The app should be recognized as mobile friendly
  • A lot of bug fixes and improvements

Big thanks to @devrtz for a lot of code improvements and to @ireneethirion for the French translation

Me: I have already too many hobbies and I have a lot of work to do.
Also me: Started to play around with #Godot just to see how a game engine works and now I have a 3D FPS controller which can run, jump, sprint, crouch and has a climbing system integrated and I already started to animate a character in #Blender and set up a small game world where I right now test some water shaders...
Why am I like this... I will never be able to finish this project.

#Librem5: Did anybody manage to move the home directory to the micro sd card and mount it to /home? Since I did this my sd card sometimes switches from read-write to read-only. I have to reboot my phone now multiple times a day because I don't get what is going on...

Does anyone know why the #Purism forums and the update servers are down? They are already down for over 24 hours which seems like they have a serious problem.

I posted recently that I was at a conference in Italy. I only had my #Librem5 with me and the JPGs from the camera are good for documentation purposes. Today I looked at the RAWs. I wasn't expecting anything especially because I am normally used to the RAWs of my #Canon EOS R5 😅 But I have to say that I am quite happy with what one can make from the RAWs. Here are some of my fist edited images processed with #darktable. I think there is even more potential but I haven't had that much time.

The #Fish shell is soooo awesome on the #Librem5. I highly recommend this on mobile devices where one is much slower at typing. The auto completion is really convenient and makes typing super fast.

Has anyone recomendations for a #case for the #Librem5? I would like to protect mine a little bit better.

Has anyone attached one to there L5 or is there a heat problem if using one?

@zwarf@social.anoxinon.de avatar

The #camera of ,the #Librem5 is of course not yet perfectly optimized for example the resolution is still limited to 3.2 MP while the sensor is capable of 13 MP but it is already good enough for documentation purposes. I used it the whole day at work to take pictures of devices and serial numbers. It was perfectly fine even in bad light situations.

Short overview about my feelings towards the after using it for 2 days as my only device.
What impresses me the most:

  • Phone calls overall are flawless
  • It feels quite snappy and responsive
  • Not one single reboot or crash so far

What currently confuses me the most:

  • Chatty doesn't load images in the matrix chat
  • Instead of some room names, Chatty shows the room IDs
  • All other matrix chat apps are also not working well.
    I wasn't expecting matrix to be my biggest problem.

First day with my new #Librem5:
I am impressed how much already works out of the box. Maybe I will write a short overview about my experience in the next few weeks.
I will try to use it as my main device as soon as possible.

I really love the #Linux and #OpenSource community. Three years ago I had no idea how to write an #GNOME application and I had not much programming experience. Now my app has over 1500 downloads on #Flathub, I got really nice feedback from users, someone contributed icons, another one contributed the French translation and I got really useful feedback from the #GNOMECircle team.
It's awesome that people I don't know help me and on the other side people I don't know enjoy using my app.

Where are the people earning money with #OpenSource #Software ? Or is there maybe even someone who founded their own company with it or has a #StartUp ? Could you might share your story? How is this software financed (donations, support subscription, premium features, etc.), how are you doing, what are the real issues you have experienced?

Please boost to find some interesting stories and inspiration :)
