Kernel 6.18 available for testing in #PureOS.

It is already running on my #Librem5, and all good until now.

See: https://forums.puri.sm/t/kernel-6-18-available-for-testing/31104

"Once 6.18 becomes the default, the soon-to-be-released-upstream 7.2 kernel will be made available as well..."

Thanks to all who worked on this, or provides support in any other way, like donating via the PureOS subscriptions!

@blackbrook @bjoern_tantau VLC > Tools > Customise interface lets me make it look like this - which is very usable. Using the flatpak version on #Librem5 running PureOS Crimson. Also tested previously on postmarketOS on another L5.

As far as I know no ETA can be given for Dawn at the moment. Work towards Dawn is in progress for sure though.

#Purism eats its own dog food and practices what it preaches:

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (31/2026): Reported Progress

#Phosh #Sxmo #SailfishOS #UbuntuTouch #Librem5 #PureOS #Jolla2 #PlasmaMobile #GNOME #MechaComet #LinuxMobile

Informative blog by @Purism explaining the technical relation between #PureOS and #Debian, and building blocks like #phosh, #phoc, #Mesa, and #libqmi.

https://puri.sm/posts/pureos-development-report-june-2026/

The blog reports the development for PureOS in June 2026.

"With the development pipeline in full swing, we’re updating some of the cornerstone components of PureOS for #Dawn. Phosh and phoc are both updated to 0.55.0, the latest Phosh release in June..."

Personally, I do not use any Android apps on the #Librem5. However, you could run certain Android apps with #Waydroid, which is available in the #PureOS repository:

https://docs.puri.sm/Software/PureOS/cfg/android/waydroid.html

For calls and messages the Librem 5 is reliable for me, and they wake the phone up, also from suspend.

#MobileLinux #FOSS #opensource #Linux #phone

@alienghic @rockario

I use the #Librem5 as my daily phone. I use the 3.5 mm jack nearly daily to listen to podcasts and internet radio.

I really like that the Librem 5 is a full Linux handheld device where I can use all Linux commands, and have full freedom.

No AI by default on the Librem 5, no ads, focus on #privacy and #security. It also has three hardware kill switches to disable mic, camera, wifi and bluetooth, and mobile data.

@janvlug Do you know if this is available to users on Crimson?

@Oleksii I'm living in the Netherlands and went to Serbia recently, with my #Librem5 running #PureOS, also there mobile data works out of the box.

#MobileLinux

@thelinuxEXP I prefer watching on #peertube. Here is a link: https://tilvids.com/w/jGs6g7uphg25pUXEBX3kLF

I'm a #Librem5 user, that runs #PureOS with @phosh (an older version). Thanks for this video about #UbuntuTouch, which I never tried myself, so the video is very informative for me.

@shortwavesurfer @sbeak It looks like the following devices can work out for you and all ship to the US afaik:
1. #FLX1s from @furilabs
2. #LibertyPhone from @purism or the lower-spec #Librem5 if you don't need Waydroid
3. #MechaComet from @mechasystems who tested two LTE modems with it recently.

I daily drive a Librem 5 with #PureOS and #postmarketOS so feel free to ask about the experience.

The June PureOS update report by @purism was published:

https://puri.sm/posts/pureos-development-report-may-2026/

It elaborates a bit more on the release of Crimson and way forward to the next release, named Dawn.

Also to the release of the #Librem16 laptop is mentioned.

"... It is extremely impressive that @purism 's Librem phones run the same OS, though. #PureOS is emblematic of Purism more broadly: these are products aimed at buyers for whom privacy, security, and strict Free Software principles matter more than price, convenience, or performance."

@sander

Less mature from which point of view? The #Librem5 and #LibertyPhone by @purism come with #PureOS, a #Debian based Linux distribution.

PureOS has recently been upgraded, and is actively maintained.

@Scubyw

I assume you are referring to the operating system? That is #PureOS. In the past #Purism also sold the Librem mini, a small form-factor mini-PC.

See here for more information about PureOS:

@purism

Purism, @purism, launched a new #Linux laptop. The Librem 16:

https://puri.sm/posts/librem-16-product-launch/

"Designed for true privacy, real security, and absolute freedom, the Librem 16 runs on Purism’s PureOS, a fully free and open source operating system. The Librem 16 laptop includes a signature Purism design, hardware kill switches that disconnect the camera, microphone, and wireless radios with a simple flip of the switch."
