Oleksiiin 4 hours I lost 90% of battery fp5, mostly i wasn't using the phone, but i guess something crazy happen in background, maybe journalctl logs can show some evidences, but for now best protection is often reboot.
BTW just yesterday i pulled last pmos edge updates, maybe it has some bugs.
UndeadLeechKumo 1.8.1 fixes a couple bugs that probably went unnoticed by everyone but me. Baby steps.

Sailfish OS 5.1 developer early access
In preparation to publish the next major Sailfish OS release, 5.1, to early access users, we have published the repositories and added them to the community OBS. This is done so that the software in Chum and other projects in OBS can be rebuilt against the new release, and any build issues fixed before the release is published to the wider early access user base. Many of the build tools and lower level libraries have received version updates of varying degrees, so incompatibilities and other is...

/e/OS works well on my newly acquired Fairphone 4 and I like it more than I thought so I am in no hurry to switch. Still, I would love to use proper #LinuxMobile eventually and even tho I have no clue what "Partially" exactly refers to on the #PostmarketOS wiki it doesn't look too bad. Dose anyone know details on how well if at all the camera, battery life, audio and most importantly phone calls work on the device rn and what's needed to complete the implementations?
We are able to follow up last year's success of financing important audio improvements in postmarketOS and the wider Linux Mobile ecosystem with another project this year, this time tackling q6voice(d).

Clément Moignard@alter_unicorn @czorn le podcast @projetslibres_podcast vient de sortir un épisode au sujet de linux sur mobile, c'est très intéressant.
Moi aussi je souhaite passer sur linux un jour.
[Smartphone] Linux dans ton smartphone : où en est-on ?
Peut-on faire tourner Linux sur son téléphone ? Dans cet épisode technique, nous rentrons en détail dans le sujet : quels sont les obstacles techniques à surmonter, quels projets se penchent sur la question, comment s’organisent-ils entre eux, et qui les finance ? Pour y répondre, nous avons invité Arnaud Ferraris, fondateur de la distribution Mobian, qui nous dresse un état des lieux de ce qui est possible aujourd’hui, ce qui pourra l’être dans le futur, et les habitudes qu’il sera difficile de changer.

webbeefApart from supported devices, what are the deciding factors to choose between @mobian and @postmarketOS ?
Building for Mobian is easy in docker (we use https://tangled.org/me.webbeef.org/beaver/blob/main/support/docker/Dockerfile.arm64), not sure if pmbootstrap is also usable in CI? Ideally we would create updatable images with cage (https://github.com/cage-kiosk/cage) as the wayland compositor and Beaver as the user environment.
