Im so grateful for all the Free software frontends to proprietary platforms. This addon is useful for accessing them automatically:

I cant decide between

https://birdnetpi.com/
or
https://github.com/MayaPosch/NymphCast

to install on my raspberry pi.

@icedquinn @ryanleesipes Notmuch is nice. I used muchsync to sync my notmuch tags. However, I also used to use an Android and syncing tags doesnt really work there. Even though the tag system is much better, it doesnt really work well with multidevice setups. I switched over to mu4e cause it uses imap folders which inherently sync easily.

@ryanleesipes Ah, Ill see if it fits my use case with the new responsive interface. Making a user interface more "mobile friendly" doesnt only help mobile users. Sometimes Ill make a window small width-wise and programs that adapt well to small width cause of mobile enhancements (ie. dino) are much more enjoyable to use.

I like mu/mu4e cause it's a really good indexer and searcher with good cli search utilities. Being able to use emacs to send emails is also a big bonus.

@ryanleesipes i use mu4e on the desktop and neomutt on mobile devices running postmarketos.

Any plans to have an adaptive interface for mobile devices in thunderbird? I dont like explaining my neomutt setup around normies =p.

@vitali64sur It depends on whether you have a t-mobile version according to the wiki.

I recently started daily driving Sxmo on the poco f1. You can read about my experience here:

The fsf just published my talk at #libreplanet 2022:

Check it out!

@vitali64sur hahah, the plan was to develop sxmo-utils which is a set of coreutils for mobile devices. I guess it's not accurate to call Sxmo an os.

@aryak @vitali64sur No idea. You might want to ask in #postmarketos-offtopic on OFTC irc network.

@aryak @vitali64sur The poco f1 recently gained calling support https://yewtu.be/watch?v=KtfTJbLiYfg

I just installed osboot, a freedom-respecting boot firmware on my x230 without any external flasher. I had issues with getting the external flasher to work but it’s possible to put the linux kernel in your chips. Huge thanks to @libreleah for this amazing project and helping me getting it working.

osboot screen (grub payload) running on my x230. Cool osboot logo is displayed

@bacardi55 @jan_wagemakers Thank you for attending! I appreciate it.

@novimatrem Thanks for writing this! It works well on pipewire too.

@ChrisWere I like opus cause it's free as in freedom. Is there an rss feed for the podcast?

@brecht gopass is what I use! It allows me to ssh in and get otp.

I will be giving a talk at Libreplanet 2022 about mobile freedom via Sxmo:

Hope to see you there!

@cnx Brilliant idea. I dont care the from tag will say my personal email. It's so annoying managing the firehose that is my university email without emacs.

@serra Im gonna see if I can implement mms testing using https://blog.craftyguy.net/sendxmpp-mms/ . I just need to find a free weekend to do so.
