CfP (deadline is 2026-06-30):
https://pretalx.postmarketos.org/postmarketos-conference-2026/cfp

"We are looking forward to your entry! No matter your background, everyone is welcome to be part of our event.
Your submission can be a short talk (max. 20 mins including questions), long talk (max. 60 mins including questions), workshop, meetup or discussion round (90 mins, for other durations please contact us).

The audience will consist of:
- kernel hackers
- distribution developers
- desktop environment maintainers
- activists
- end users
and potentially more groups of people. If your submission targets at least one of these groups, it's probably a good one! Ideally, it would also be related to postmarketOS in some way, but that is not a hard requirement."

RE: https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon/116402716327956884

You know Mastodon are good people because Trust & Safety improvements are on top of the list when they get more than €600K in funding.

The other big news are their plans to specify how instances will be able to share services, called FASP.

And €90K will be shared with other projects to make sure FASP is not a Mastodon-only feature.

Good people working in the general public’s interest. Also kudos to @sovtechfund for funding it.

Yesterday I fixed the Fairphone 5 audio on my Archlinux system, just for myself (afaik I'm the only user of my FP5 stuff).

Within that day, @wrenix submitted a pmOS patch and 3 separate people already approved it (with Luca not even being one of them).

@FestplattenSchnitzel even ported the fix to the FP4 and tested it.

PostmarketOS might not be able to win me over from Arch with their software, but the community they managed to build is impressive.
