Seeing the PostmarketOS fan mascot (I love it a lot @pastelsolitude !) made me realise I never explained the art I made for the April community update.
I have been wanting to make a proper mascot for #pine64 for a long time but it has never happened due to there being no wishes for one from the founder.
Charlie (yes, a reference to THAT unicorn) was originally based on an image of a toy that was given to a previous community managers child and was first used as an April fools mascot in 2022 for the PineBuds.
These days I draw them as an unofficial mascot to represent the Pine64 community along with their yearly appearances as a April fools character.
The port of Sailfish for the OnePlus 6 has the best performance out of all the ports currently imo. I recommend giving it a try.
I recently received my #pine64 #pinetabv. Going to make a couple of videos on it. I want to publish a tutorial for batch 1 owners on flashing the new test firmware as it requires a new uboot image to be flashed onto the SPI chip.
One major thing I've noticed is that the SOC is highly dependent on the GPU. It cannot handle rendering using software as the CPU is very weak. It is very usable when the desktop is accelerated, web browsing is snappy.
I didn't manage to get the cameras to work, I noticed that there are some cobbled together scripts to get them to work, but that was unsuccessful. I did get display out to work fine though, as seen in the image.
