New year, new release candidate!
We've tagged #Phosh 0.52~rc1 together with #feedbackd 0.8.8, gmobile #0.6.0 and #pfs 0.0.6 . pfs now ships a simple example file selector app, excuse the logo but we were thinking about a mobile file cabinet:
Happy 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣6️⃣ everyone!

#feedbackd now ships a media role configuration to separate audio volumes but it is not installed by default yet as this will need #wireplumber 0.5.13 to work properly. You can try it out by building feedbackd with the
-Dmedia-roles=trueoption. Feedback appreciated (pun intended 🙃).feedbackd-device-themes improves support for the Google Pixel 3A XL
and gmobile adds support for the #Fairphone 6. -
