Toot

Amazing work! I’m very excited to see mobile Linux reach a usable state for every day processing. Thank your for your time and energy. It is valuable and going to good use.

Why the Pixel 3a? Is there anything special about it (or not special, which might mean my old 3XL is good for more than gathering dust?)

How can I get involved? I know my way around C and would love to pitch in.

Yup. It definitely is now ready for everyday use, though there are still a few smaller issues I’ve got to fix. But nothing that stops me from using it now.

The only thing special about the Pixel 3a is that I had it already. Maybe it is special in that it is now the smallest Linux phone that is supported by a mainline kernel AND which is actually usable as a phone (for some other phones audio does not work, for example). Some might call a headphone jack something special… or an eSIM, as there are not many Linux phones with an eSIM.

To get involved, I recommend joining the Moban Development Matrix room: #mobian-dev:matrix.debian.social

Pretty sure we can find something where skills in C would be helpful.
