  1. @hpod16 Thank you! 🤗 Would be great to include European mobile operating systems and devices too, like @volla and @jolla #VollaPhone #Sailfish #DigitalSovereignty #Linux

  2. @claudius @oldperl @evacide the kernel seems to be behind, yes. At least this is what I see in termux. I am not sure which abstractions it uses, though.

    I am generally not a big fan of android and iOS, I am also considering trying #Sailfish or something else #Linux based (preferable with gnome). I'd use another phone for android / banking stuff then. If anyone knows a good source for #UX details where I could get some real impression of how good it would work, that would be awesome.

  3. Noch ein bisschen MWC-Nachlese: Wir haben gleich zu dritt den Stand von @jolla besucht. Es ist ein eigens designtes Smartphone, es wird nahe Helsinki zusammengesetzt, der Akku ist tauschbar, Abhängigkeiten von Google gibt es nur optional und die ersten Telefone sind schon alle ausverkauft. Ich bin sehr gespannt, wie sich Sailfish OS machen wird. Damals fand ich MeeGo richtig vielversprechend und hier ist viel der alten Nokia noch drin.

  8. I'm in the market for a new phone (my current device is a pixel 5 and running well but physically falling apart) and looking for some advice.

    Would love to not use #android and considering maybe #sailfish? Based in US with T-Mobile as carrier. What's the best new phone for me?

  9. @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] Zumindest läuft die DB Navigator-App auch auf "Android App Support" auf #Sailfish. Vermutlich also auch auf #LineageOS o.Ä. mit #microG.

    Ist dann immer noch die Android-App, aber zumindest sicher vor irgendwelchen US-Accountsperren.

    Hoffentlich fängt aber nicht die Deutsche Bahn an, US-Sanktionen umzusetzen. Ich meine, die US könnten sie zwar sanktionieren, aber was soll davon ernsthaft passieren - Verspätungen?
  10. @fussballinguist "frei" und iOS in einem Satz? 😅 - Ich schaue mich gerade bei #sailfish #LiberuxOS (#LinuxMobile) usw um, weil Android immer unfreier wird. @kuleszdl

  14. <<<

    The one exception to this rosy picture was transferring my SMS store.

    I used SSH to login to the #Sailfish device, installed sqlite, and did a dump of the database. I transferred the dump to my PC. I converted the dump from CSV to JSON. Finally, I zipped the file for use by "SMS Import / Export".

    I was pleased with myself. Then I realised that the two devices stored the data in different ways. 🙄 For example, the LOS device needs a "thread_id". Bummer!

    I might revisit this later.

    End

  15. <<<

    Moving from #Sailfish back to #LineageOS was fairly pain free.

    Installation of LOS was as seamless as ever. The docs are really superb. Motorola provide an online mechanism to unlock the bootloader, which makes life much easier.

    Moving my data was straightforward, with one exception. My photos and music were transferred from my SD card. Nextcloud stuff was synced. I don't have my Contacts and Calendar in the Cloud. I make it a policy to use apps which support both import and export.

    >>>

  16. Motorola Edge 20

    I sourced this 'phone last year in my frantic search for a device which could run #LineageOS and handle VoLTE on Three. Subsequently, I moved to EE, and got an Xperia to run #Sailfish. This 'phone has been sitting on a shelf ever since.

    As the photo shows it is now running LOS. More about that later.

    This is the first 'phone I've used that doesn't have a MicroSD slot. Half the 128GB has gone already. :blobsad: No notification LED, either. :blobsad:

  17. The new Jolla Phone with Sailfish OS is on track to start shipping in the first half of 2026

    Late last year Jolla began taking pre-orders for a new smartphone powered by the company’s Sailfish OS software. Now the Finnish company has announced that after receiving over 10,000 pre-orders, it’s preparing to produce its first batch of new Jolla Phones during the second quarter of 2026.

    Jolla has also launched a second round of pre-orders for folks who didn’t get in on the first round. […]

  23. Chapter 10 – picking up the ungoogled thread again with Sailfish OS

    Some time in October I think it was I decided that it might well be a good time in world history to get hold of a reasonably secure and "smaller-tech" mobile phone in order to be a bit less dependent on the current major players.

    devenirgris.com/2026/03/07/cha

  24. The screen has a subtle edge curve which helps with the #Jolla gestures. The screen was bright and colours saturated. Everything worked smooth and rapid, but then again the same could mostly be said about my old Sony Xperia 10ii running #Sailfish. I didn’t have the time to do in-depth tests with Android apps.

    One thing I noticed was the lack of text prediction/correction. That’s apparently something being looked into (the Xperia build has it).

  25. The new @jolla phone preorder has technically finished with 9837 sold, just short of 10K. However the ordering still seems to work so probably last moments to jump on board with a true alternative to the #smartphone duopoly (they run #Sailfish, a completely different OS developed in Finland).

    Can 163 Mastodonians be found to push #Jolla over that huge milestone? :)

  26. Tooting from native #Sailfish app #Tooterß👋 I have to say, I am very suprised. Even as Xperia 10 III is old phone and not top tier when it was published, #SFOS runs super smoothly! I have run to only two bugs, from where only one can be considered bad. 95% of android apps I have tried, work perfectly. Really mature enough to be daily drivable!

    Thank you #Jolla!

  27. Hat jemand hier ein Jolla/Sailfish Phone und kann die Alltagstauglichkeit für/mit Apps wie DB Navigator, Banking Apps, Signal, conversations etc. beurteilen?

    Edit: Habe inzwischen ein Shiftphone mit Murena e/OS. Damit komme ich gut zurecht.

  28. @Muppensish sorry i have cognitive difficulties and got confused. it's NOT an xperia it's a #jollaC2 phone, an open source phone from a small company in finland. they use #sailfish only in their phones.
    i got confused bc i also have an xperia.

  32. This is going to mean:
    - No banking apps (but websites are ok of course)
    - No navigation with live traffic updates (I'll be late for things, but I don't want to install Google-owned Waze on it)
    - No WhatsApp (You can't have it on multiple devices
    - While I do have Facebook messenger installed, no other notifications from Facebook as it's only available in the browser
    - No NFC payments ...
    - Ropey GPS
    (I don't use tiktok so despite the previous post that isn't a concern)

  36. The new Jolla Phone might support swappable back covers that add new hardware capabilities

    This month Jolla launched a crowdfunding campaign for a new smartphone designed to run the company’s Linux-based Sailfish operating system. At the time Jolla was hoping to get at least 2,000 people to put down a deposit before it would commit to actually manufacturing the phone.

    As of this morning, more than 5,600 people have backed the project. So, like many crowdfunding campaigns before it, […]

  37. Speech Note. Linux desktop and #Sailfish OS app for note taking, reading and translating with offline Speech to Text, Text to Speech and Machine Translation github.com/mkiol/dsnote

    Está disponible en los repositorios de Packman para openSUSE. En GitHub tiene paquetes RPM, DEB y FlatPak. Permite usar GPUs tanto de AMD (ROCm) como NVIDIA (CUDA).

    Funciona bastante bien. Ha transcrito diálogos con bastante precisión (inglés, WhisperCppLarge-V3 acelerado con #ROCm). Siempre hay que revisar el texto transcrito. Se come e inventa palabras.

  38. So, I sort of hate iOS and Android; I'm definitely not a fan of Apple or Google. Are there any reasonable options for a smartphone outside of those two?

    I was looking at Sailfish OS, which seems nice (and can run Android apps for those things that need it), but it runs on Jolla phones, and those don't ship to Canada. 🇨🇦

    thank you for this. it is very helpful💙

    one of the pleasantly strange things about #Mastodon is that when i ask a question, people actually answer😊

    i've been advocating for building a blue💙economy & wrote several stacks on it

    basically, identify blue businesses locally & try to only shop there. reward good💙businesses. but it's tricky

    I want to switch from #Android to #Sailfish but i know nothing of the owners of #sailfish_os

    i do what i can
