It looks like the Liberux Nexx is no longer the only upcoming RK3588s #LinuxMobile phone:

The dawndrums Divine D will use the same very SoC, running a Debian/@mobian based OS called DawnOS (with GNOME Mobile/#Phosh or #PlasmaMobile).

(My D key needs a break now 😉 )

Last year, I tried to help #Librem5 users to have a better experience when using #flatpak apps by not wasting space due to an outdated, buggy release of flatpak.

Today, I've added something else that should help on every distribution to that same post: Avoiding translations you don't need.

FBI Warning on Messaging Apps
The FBI urges Americans to ditch SMS for encrypted apps—then demands backdoors via “responsible encryption.”

Big Tech resists.

Law enforcement wants access.

There’s another way:

Purism’s Librem 5 & Liberty Phone

✅ USA-made
✅ No Google/Apple OS
✅ Hardware kill switches
✅ Open-source PureOS
✅ Lifetime security updates
✅ Supports Matrix, Jami & more

Don’t just switch apps. Change the platform.
