A question to @Mer__edith and @signalapp : when will Signal Desktop be available for aarch64 (arm64) CPUs so that it becomes straightforward to install on devices such as and ?

If that is not happening, then why, what is stopping you?

The (wrong and silly) assumption that everyone must use Google/Apple phones is expected from Big Tech these days but you are supposed to be among the good guys. Please help us be free from Google/Apple 🙂

Anyone know of a good music library manager for Mobile Linux? (esp. Phosh/GNOME)

I like the aesthetic and background playback features of Amberol, but it can't do playlists or scrobble my listens to last.fm. I like the functionality of Lollypop, but it crashes too much and the UI/UX is awful.

Here's my criteria:

  • Adaptive for mobile/touch
  • Scrobble to last.fm
  • Playlists/Artists/Albums
  • Background Playback

Also being pretty would be nice.

Android 14 changed the color of the low battery icon from red to white.

Recently, for some reason, I've stopped getting "Battery low" notifications at very low percents...but I still get them at 30% & 25% (I have it set to start at 30%).

...so now I rarely notice when my phone is about to die. This has interrupted me on so many occasions.

My hatred of Android has been growing exponentially lately.

My phone, despite my best efforts, works against my wishes on behalf of others.

This is a device society expects you to carry 24/7 & acts as your primary gateway to both digital & IRL services. i.e. mandatory.

is a cartel colonizing the attention spans of billions of people. It must be broken up & the project should be put under the control of a democratic organization

cannot come fast enough. I'l tolerate any level of jank to never have to touch Android again.

@Lehmanator I have used as my daily driver for years. Easy to install on an open Sony Xperia handset. Not janky at all. Smooth and straightforward. All modern conveniences, no spyware.
I have used many other Linux phones and other alternatives too over the years and SFOS is hands down the best. Don’t waste your time. With Sailfish you don’t need to sacrifice quality or ease by switching to and you own all your data.
I blogged about it here

I repurposed my old Mi A1 smartphone as a Linux-based audio player!
I 3D-printed the brackets to attach the Fiio Q1 mark II DAC+AMP and enabled the USB sound card drivers in the kernel (https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/issues/2531).
Thanks to and for making this possible! 😊

A Fiio Q1 mark II DAC+AMP is attached to the back of the smartphone with 3D-printed brackets, the two are connected with an angled USB cable at the bottom

Am Osnabrücker Altstadtbahnhof ist das erste vollautomatische Fahrradparkhaus der Stadt eröffnet worden. In dem 16 Meter hohen "BikeTower" können rund 160 Fahrräder geschützt abgestellt werden.

Das Ein- und Ausparken erfolge per Smartphone-App nach einem Paternoster-System, so der Betreiber. So können Reisende ihr Fahrrad rund um die Uhr parken und wieder abholen.

Wenn @bfdi es von unseren Steuergeldern finanziert (2.5 M€), dann bitte !

Die Smartphone-App gibt es offenbar nur für Google- und Apple-Betriebssysteme, weder für noch andere -Varianten.

Warum nicht optional auch mit einer Karte? (Z.B. RFID)

NEW:

(Technically, this is a modified mirror, since Codeberg does not support forking non-Codeberg git repos)

I'll try to keep changes in sync between my Mobile-Friendly-Firefox and my mobile-config-firefox repos.

Major Update:

  • Added to install and uninstall scripts

    • Support for Librewolf, Mullvad, and Tor browsers

I have not tested Mobile-Friendly-Firefox with these browsers yet, as I am waiting for official arm64 releases before installing them onto my Librem 5. While I think that everything should work, anyone can share issues here on the fediverse, on my Mobile-Friendly-Firefox repo, or on my forum thread. I'll try to check all three from time to time so I don't miss anything.


Minor Update:

  • Added to install and uninstall scripts

    • Support for Librewolf flatpak

I have tested and confirmed that it works perfectly.

Okay, I think I am done updating files for a while now.

I have fixed all known issues, and everything works well. The only issue is a cosmetic one that doesn’t really matter and is unlikely to be noticed (the Tab Manager Menu in landscape mode doesn’t expand to use the full screen, but it works well and is very usable).

So I think it’s safe for everyone to save the files they need now.

For info on all of the recent updates, check the October 2023 Halloween Update (post 55).

For anyone that saw my post yesterday (November 11th), please check it again. There are additional updates from today, and I edited that post to include them.

October 2023 Halloween Update:

Just in time for Halloween! Dress up the Firefox app on your Librem 5 to look like Firefox for Android!

Mobile-Friendly Firefox Customizations for Librem 5

  • Added userContent.css (fenix) to fix Firefox about pages to be better fit for Librem 5 as well as a color theme to match Firefox for Android, code-named Fenix.

  • Added fenix_colors.css for a color theme to match Firefox for Android, (Fenix). If you do not want the Private Browsing Mode theme for the URL Bar and Nav Bar, comment out that section of code at the bottom of the file.

  • Added fenix.css as an alternative to true_mobile_mode.css that more closely resembles Firefox for Android (Fenix).

  • Added extensions_menu.css to fix the Unified Extensions Menu.

  • Added dynamic_popups.css and several variations so that extensions expand into a big enough popup which also supports horizontal scrolling. Works best with true_mobile_mode.css or fenix.css.

  • Added alt-browser-alt.css to be used with true_mobile_mode.css or fenix.css instead of browser.css. It can also be used with other styles like alt-single_tab_mode-alt.css to have the Tab Bar at the top of the screen and the Nav Bar at the bottom.

  • Added single_tab_mode-alt.css, true_mobile_mode-alt.css, and fenix-alt.css, to be used without alt-browser-alt.css or browser.css in order to have the Nav Bar at the top of the screen.

  • Added true_mobile_landscape.css and true_mobile_landscape-alt.css to have a nice landscape mode that maximizes usable space and fixes flickering popups.

  • Added fenix_fox.css to have a single standalone userChrome file containing all necessary code except fenix_colors.css. You can add dynamic_popups.css or another variation. fenix_fox-alt.css is the version that has the Nav Bar at the top of the screen. You will still need userContent.css (fenix).

  • Added fenix_one.css to have a single standalone userChrome file containing all necessary code, including fenix_colors.css. If you do not want the Private Browsing Mode theme for the URL Bar and Nav Bar, comment out that section of code at the bottom of the file. You can add dynamic_popups.css or another variation. fenix_one-alt.css is the version that has the Nav Bar at the top of the screen. You will still need userContent.css (fenix).

  • Added variables into many files so that they work in “Normal” and “Touch” density modes.

If you prefer having a single userChrome file, you can simply rename fenix_fox.css or fenix_one.css to userChrome.css. You can also copy and paste the contents of one of the dynamic_popups files to the bottom of the userChrome.css file. Whichever userChrome file or files you decide to use, you will still need userContent.css (fenix).
