  • You're given $20,000 USD (or the equivalent in your local currency) to spend, but anything still left by the end of the day you lose for good. What are you spending it on?

  • It's not left if I give it away. As soon as I wire it to, let's say Red Cross*, it is not longer there.

  • Not much, the battery will just deplete quicker. Otherwise you only notice that phone calls make the phone ring. If it is suspended, it won't ring. (for now)

  • Also, SailfishOS uses an Android kernel with libhybris, I want to use a mainline kernel to ensure I'll get updates for a long time.

  • UFS == flash in this case, it's where the phone stores OS, bootloader, user data and so on.

  • Could you please link to where you found that? Maybe that's outdated info? Without the context I'm not sure what exactly is unreliable.

    Phone calls work, but only if the phone is not suspended. Some people are working on letting the phone wake up when called. Haven't followed the progress for a while. If you disable suspend, is works well, at least for me. Not sure whether others have noticed issues in different situations.

  • Oh and I'm currently working on mainlining the Xperia 10 III with the intention of porting Mobian. I got display, GPU, flashlight working, but am stuck at figuring out whether that phone has a bug that breaks it if I enable UFS support, like some Xperias has in the past. If anyone knows a way of veriying whether it is safe to turn on flash, that'd help a lot. I could then enable UFS, Wifi, Modem, GPS, and probably Bluetooth... all at once.

    Just don't want to find out whether it'll break the hard way.

    I'll keep this up to date with my current progress: https://git.erebion.eu/forgejo/erebion/pdx213-temp

  • I've ported Mobian to the Pixel 3a and use it as a daily driver.

    two annoyances:

    • I've not yet figured out calls via Bluetooth, but other audio works fine, including XMPP calls via Dino [if anyone knows how to get calls working via Bluetooth, drop a comment and I'll see if I can get it working]
    • camera is buggy and does not work well yet (there are people working on that)

    Here's what I had posted on it around a year ago: https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/22388672

  • Did you consider talking to the RFC's author? Maybe they are planning a new RFC that will update that, this could then be included.

  • Authentik: Allowing users to create invites?

    Jump

  • I already have an invite flow that users will arrive at and go through when signing up, now I want to let users create invites for other users. That page does not mention anything about that. It seems to be about adding a flow that asks user for details such as an email address and then they get their account.

    In my case users have already gone through that and want to invite someone else.

    With invitations, you can either email an enrollment invitation URL to one or more specific recipients with pre-defined credentials, or you can email a URL to users, who can then log in and define their own credentials.

    I already have enrollment invitation URLs. Just not automatically. I wrote a script that uses the API for that purpose.

    The docs even mention this about the flow:

    Enrollment (2 Stage)

    Flow: right-click here and save the file.

    Sign-up flow for new users, which prompts them for their username, email, password and name. No verification is done. Users are also immediately logged on after this flow.

  • Authentik: Allowing users to create invites?

    Jump

  • Nope. Not what the question is about. This requires an admin user to create an invitation in the admin backend. I want a way to let users do that.

  • hosted my own XMPP account

  • I read the whole thing, but my brain decided it should replace IRC with XMPP while reading, so it made less sense. xD

  • I thought IRC would be quite simple

    which is not a good experience

    This made me think of Matrix. I don't want to hate on it, it's just annoyingly slow, even though users seem to like it for some reason.

  • be sure to not use greeter logins and disk encryption as the on-screen keyboards (OSK) don’t work outside the DE. also, issues with non-US keyboard layouts.

    Just set up unl0kr and keep safe, no need to use an installation without encryption. It's not even difficult, mainly just requires installing the package and adding the unlock script path to crypttab.

    It's nice to have a device with FDE and Secure Boot, gives peace of mind in case that thing ends up in the wrong hands.

  • I doubt that. Signal has slow development, there aren't new features all that often.

    This was the state three months ago. Quite a few things changed, I will definitely post an update once I find the time.

  • Curious how well existing Android devices with Linux support fare currently.

    Better than the Pinephone. See my other post on this thread where I talk about my Mobian port to the Pixel 3a and click the link for some more detailed info on how well it works.

    Oh and the Pinephone is just way too slow and the thermal design is not really good and it also does have issues in other parts of the hardware. It's not a good phone, it's a passable development device that easily allows to turn off things such as Bluetooth.

    And... an old Android phone such as the Pixel 3a is just a lot cheaper and runs way faster with a far better battery life.
