Come on #LinuxMobile people, we're very close to the 10k mark for the new #SailfishOS #Jolla2 phone. Reaching that, @jolla will open source "The Other Half", the amazing changeable backplate with hardware accessories the #Jolla1 already had.
Google's "fuck-around" with requiring all app devs to provide government ID etc, is turning into "find out".
Let's keep up the pressure, while building sustainable alternatives to Google's Android monopoly.

Another FOSDEM and hackathon are in the rear-view mirror, and it is hard to find words to describe how amazingly productive and fun the experience was! We met so many people at the postmarketOS stand, in the FOSS on Mobile devroom and at dinners in the evening. As always it is fun to put faces to nicknames and to talk about the Linux Mobile ecosystem, and figure out how to improve it in person.
Find photos and what we got done in the blog post:

anyone knows of any modular (and opensource) phone projects?
like for example the oursPhone (if that's still being worked on)
