Where will the next LibreOffice Conference be held? @tdforg members will decide! We've received two proposals, from Budapest and Luxembourg: https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2025/03/31/libreoffice-conference-2025-location-proposals/ #foss #opensource #freesoftware
Phosh can now have a lockscreen wallpaper and it's configurable via Mobile Settings (using the xdg portal). Text and icons got some shadows to improve readability on lockscreen and overview:
2/N
Speaking of quick settings: Status page are now automatically closed when the top
panel closes:
4/N
We improved notch/cutout support so devices with cameras in the indicator area (like the Nothing Phone 1) are now handled better:
5/N
It's now easier to spot in p-o-s which layer will be activated and switching to the 2nd symbol layer is more consistent:
7/N
The maximum haptic strength in feedbackd can now be configured. Also haptics can now use the full range and feedback profiles can use the `VibraPattern` for more nuanced feedback. Should haptics be too soft/strong on your device please submit updates to feedbackd-device-profiles!
8/N
The desktop portal gained initial support for v2 of the notification spec. This finally allows flatpak applications to set categories (most notably `im.received`) and markup body, thus catching up with non-portaled applications.
(Note to app developers: glib's widely used notification implementation doesn't forward that yet (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/merge_requests/4027) but libnotify does.
9/N
There's also been plenty of bug (including crash-) fixes and phoc now supports the ext-foreign-toplevel-info and alpha-modifier-v1 protocol Wayland protocols.

I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
