#postmarketos — Public Fediverse posts

There is an upcoming conference in Dec in #London that would be great if we could get a talk about #GTK on android. It's a neat little 2 day conference.

https://sessionize.com/droidcon-london-2026/

CfP is open! Anybody interested in putting in a talk?

#PostmarketOS: #expressatt: converting expressatt to a generic device

i'm liking the idea of a generic device encapsulating all devices in an arch. there are now generic pkgs for x86_64 and ppc64le with aarch64 in the pipeline

decided to open a pr (but more like an rfc) for how to do the same for armv7

https://gitlab.postmarketos.org/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/merge_requests/9490

input welcome!

side note: there's also an idea to make an arch-agnostic generic device pkg. i think this is a great idea too

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (35/2026): Funded Flatpaks

I worked on improving my #Blokus app Pentobi (https://pentobi.sourceforge.io) to support #postmarketOS better. It should now work a lot better on both #Phosh and #PlasmaMobile. The new version will be released on Flathub once Debian/Sid made the transition to Qt 6.11 (hopefully in a few weeks)..

If you are stuck in an elevater, and you would have to choose would you rather...

I found it a little bit more fiddly (than on #UbuntuTouch) to get Waydroid working in #PostmarketOS but this wiki page was helpful:

https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Waydroid

After that, downloading the #fdroid apk and installing AuroraStore was plain sailing. So in short AuroraStore is already supported (in a way, i.e. in an Android container) in Linux on mobile devices.

📸 Wow, rejoice! The Fairphone 6 now boasts a "working" main camera on PostmarketOS—because nothing screams innovation like finally catching up to 2010's camera quality standards! 😂 But hey, at least they're acknowledging the graininess; maybe one day they'll discover the magic of JPEG alternatives! 📷✨

Liebes Fediverse.

Meine bisherige Instanz bei Anoxinon liegt leider im Koma. Daher einmal #neuhier

Ich interessiere mich für #kunst, #musik und #freiesoftware.

Ich mache lehrreiche Videos zu #linux und #selfhosting die ihr auf #peertube findet: https://tube.sp-codes.de/c/tuxwiz/videos

Meine Leidenschaft sind #linuxmobile Handys mit #postmarketos und ich nutze dort einen Tiling Windowmanaget namens #sway mit #sxmo.

Wer hier nur noch #bahnhof versteht, dem empfehle ich meine #podcast Folge bei #gnulinux_ch : https://gnulinux.ch/ciw089-podcast

Ich würde mich über #austausch mit euch sehr freuen und bin auf euch gespannt. Gerne auch #retoot für mehr Reichweite.

I stumbled upon #seeqie , a terminal-based image viewer that uses Sixel Graphics. Written in #bash. It works fine with #foot #wayland on my desktop, but also on my #postmarketOS #sxmo phone. Nice!

Question of the day.

If I flash an older mobile ROM with something like PostmarketOS, am I also going to lose existing files in the storage system i.e. photos?

#mobileLinux #postmarketOS #plasmaMobile

I wish there was a crowdfunding campaign somewhere to get a reasonably modern phone up and running reliably with real Linux.

I'm talking something with PostmarketOS / Mobian + Phosh/Plasma Mobile / Gnome Mobile and the basics made reliable:
* wifi
* mobile data
* calls
* suspend/wake
* camera

Maybe make Waydroid integration a stretch goal, but not a core requirement.

I would gladly throw a bunch of money at something with the promise to get the basics to work reliably.

Maybe the issue isn't money, but it sure seems like pooling funding for some of the highly talented people working in the space couldn't hurt.

Anyone know of anything like this?

@alexziemianski @thelinuxEXP second this. #Lomiri is supported by #postmarketOS too, and new UIs can be added just by installing postmarketos-ui-* packages

Good news: Your #Purism #Librem5 will soon be able to turn into a ship when running #postmarketOS with systemd: https://gitlab.postmarketos.org/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/merge_requests/8972

I took this picture with my #pocophone f1 today running #Postmarketos with #plasmamobile on kernel 7.1

Hello everyone after a long time! Hope you're all doing great, I've missed this community :)

My internet is finally back to a relatively stable state, which means I can jump back into my old passion projects!

I recently saw that a native ARM64 beta port of the Steam client was released, and I knew it was the perfect time to test it on my Linux phone.

I'm currently running #postmarketOS with #PlasmaMobile on my PocoPhone F1. Since pmOS is based on Alpine, it uses musl libc, which doesn't support running these binaries natively. To bypass this, I set up an Ubuntu 24.04 #Distrobox container and installed the ARM64 Steam client along with box64 and box86. The process wasn't as straightforward as some guides suggest (like the one below); I had to do some extra tweaking. I'll definitely write a detailed blog post or a postmarketOS wiki entry about it soon!

🔗 https://interfacinglinux.com/community/sbcsoftware/native-steam-client-for-arm-linux/

I managed to boot Steam into Big Picture mode and went straight to setting up Proton.

Note: The Proton 11 ARM64 mentioned in the link didn't work for me, so I used Proton Experimental instead.

I paired my PS4 controller via Bluetooth, and it worked flawlessly out of the box! For the gaming test, I downloaded Crab Game (kept it lightweight due to my strict data limits).

Against all odds, it actually launched! Running via Proton Experimental + Box64/86 inside Distrobox on my phone, I managed to get a relatively playable 20-30 FPS. Linux mobile gaming is getting wild! 🐧🎮

Reading a bit on #PostmarketOS, #PlasmaMobile, #Halium etc.

There are lots of pieces in that puzzle, and I'm not likely to spring for the PinePhone hardware. But PlasmaM may be a viable option for a side project – I could pick away at it to vent frustrations with Android. I even see one of my old phones mentioned - the MotoG6 on which some have had some porting success.

(GrapheneOS sounds nice, but it's all Google Pixel hardware :frownyFace )

I'm daily driving #postmarketOS with #PlasmaMobile now! :blobcatuwu:

Het smartphonelandschap wordt gecontroleerd door twee grote Amerikaanse technologiebedrijven: Google en Apple. Hoe mooi zou het zijn als er een Linux-distributie voor de telefoon is dat niet gecontroleerd wordt door een commercieel bedrijf, dat gebruikers geen propriëtaire en online diensten opdringt en je privacy wel respecteert?

Op de NLUUG voorjaarsconferentie van 7 mei 2026 zal Bart Ribbers #PostmarketOS introduceren en laten zien hoe ver dit FOSS initiatief voor de smartphone ondertussen gekomen is.

Kijk voor het hele programma op https://nluug.nl/evenementen/nluug/voorjaarsconferentie-2026/

I'd like to connect a usb ethernet dongle to my nokia #n900 on #PostmarketOS

If I connect the dongle to other computers, it uses the module r8152. So I configured and compiled the kernel for pmos.

Now I can load the module, but the eth device still doesn't show up.

In the wiki https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Nokia_N900_(nokia-n900) , there's a quote:

"With some work, it most likely should work with manual activation."

How do I do this?
