@Sxan Based on a recent forum post by @jc, their #LibertyPhone production run should also be complete in December. Actually screen repacement cost is how I came to L5. A previous Pixel 6 Pro device’s screen replacement cost was so high that it made more sense to pay $20-50 more and buy a brand new 6A. Now I’m seeing that Librem 5 screen cost 1/8th of the product price and roughly 1/5th of the Pixel 6 Pro screen replacement cost!

@Sxan I’m not in the US, but #Librem5 works with carrier T-Mobile and Purism’s Awesim according to their wiki and forums.

I’m daily driving Librem 5 with #postmarketOS (stable - phosh) and everything critical for my use case works: VoLTE calls and SMS (although I avoid both now since #SaltTyphoon), 4G data, Wi-Fi, basic camera, GPS navigation using #PureMaps, latest apps from #Flathub, web browsing using Firefox-ESR, e2ee messaging and calling using Signal Desktop, DeltaChat, Matrix, XMPP, etc. and of course my most used feature, the headphone jack!

What does not work is recording sound in videos, although recording sound itself using Sound Recorder works, just not in videos.

@Mynameisallen @potatoguy VoLTE is supported on the #Librem5 with #postmarketOS - I’m daily driving one. Old units will need modem firmware upgrade plus enabling #VoLTE manually.

@DarkAri The #Librem5 does work in the US with T-Mobile, various smaller carriers and @purism 's AweSIM.

@DarkAri @warmaster Agreed. @henry Linux phones are the only long-term freedom and privacy respecting solution. Check out the #Furiphone #FLX1s from @furilabs

I’m daily driving a #Librem5 with #postmarketOS and most important things work OK despite the modest specs. I especially appreciate the removable user-replaceable battery and general modularity. However, the feature I use most (more than calls and messages even) is… the #HeadphoneJack!

@drew_belloc @noodlejetski I don’t have a dock either. I do have a favourites row though, and currently these are the pinned apps (arranged in no particular order):

1. Calls by #GNOME & #Purism

2. Chats (#Chatty) by Purism & GNOME - supports #SMS, #Matrix, #XMPP

3. Contacts by GNOME

4. #Firefox web browser by #Mozilla

5. #SignalMessenger

6. GNOME Settings

7. #Phosh Mobile Settings

8. Tweaks by #postmarketOS

9. #Tuba (client for #Mastodon / #Fediverse)

10. #Kasts by #KDE

11. #DeltaChat ( #openstandards-based, #securityaudited, fast #e2ee chats over bloody #email!)

12. Files / #Nautilus by GNOME

All #FreeSoftware /Libre, #OpenSource #FOSS / #FLOSS : )

Note: The home screen and the app drawer / search / overview is all one and the same.

@ocean So thankful my brain is #FOSS ; )

@ocean https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.mhss.app.mybrain/

@ocean I have used my brain for that on occassion. Definitely recommended.

@normplum @ISOmorph @Powderhorn Thanks, will give it a try and see if it can replace noScript.

@ISOmorph @Powderhorn Please explain how, when #uBlockOrigin works based on blocklisting while #noScript uses allowlisting?
