The year is coming to a close and while you might be unwrapping other gifts shortly, we have just wrapped up the latest postmarketOS release for you. 🎁
https://postmarketos.org/blog/2025/12/23/v25.12-release/
Big thanks to everybody who contributed to postmarketOS, to @alpinelinux or any of the numerous upstream components we use. Without you this would not be possible! ❤️
We would also like to thank @nlnet and @NGIZero for funding most of the infrastructure and maintenance work that went into this release!

Which of these on screen keyboard features would you have expected to be enabled by default in #Phosh (see follow up posts for more details on each feature):
| Show a small popover when pressing a character | |
| Keep the OSK's size constant | |
| Add empty space at the bottom on tall devices | |
| None of the above |
Today I handed my @furilabs #FLX1 running #phosh and #GNOME to an assistant on a ferry to get the paid WiFi activated. I expected to have to explain the whole OS, but she required literally zero help. Navigating phosh, disabling/activating airplane mode and WiFi, opening and checking the WiFi settings, opening a browser, etc. - she just did it without questions. I doubt she had ever seen this OS before.
I guess a Linux phone is not that hard for "normal people", then.

@postmarketos systemd seem to have some issues with flatpaks on different DE. Seems confirmed atleast on sxmo-de-sway sxmo-de-dwm and lxqt.
Looks like the issue is around ambient capabilities. This was fixed in #phosh upstream so systemd phosh pmos probably never ran into this issue. Seems like the fix phosh implemented is to drop it on start up so we might want to do something similar to other DEs.
