I haven't seen this in my feeds yet, so for anyone wanting to limit the battery charge on a device running #pmOS.

Some non-US company needs to build a hardware phone set around Postmarket OS and just 'get on with it'. There's an obvious appetite for something other than Google Android or Apple iOS phones.

I mean, the OS is there just waiting; throw some professional engineering effort around power management, cameras, and UX and it's a good jump into a practical, commodity phone that is open with a lot of heavy lifting already done. If that corp was practical and ethical it even could be a decent technology and social "good".

In Canada I'd hope a company like BlackBerry could do something like this but, do they even make hardware anymore, do they exist in the mobile space? If they exist would they even still have the talent to pull off something like this?

It doesn't have to be an expensive premium device, it just needs to be decent enough, affordable device with open software like an unencumbered browser, tethering, ability to run Signal...

In the current Distrowatch Weekly issue postmarketOS with Phosh has been reviewed. Even though it has been tested on a fairly outdated Pinephone, pmOS seem to have made a really good overall impression: https://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20260105
