Weekly GNU-like Mobile Linux Update (25/2025): Packed with Goodies
This week really was something: postmarketOS ship 25.06 (which, among other things, adds systemd) and work to reverse-engineer VoLTE, FuriOS 13.1.0 lands with Open-Store support (for Ubuntu Touch apps), and plenty of other improvments, Plasma Mobile share detailed log of all the fixes and improvements they managed to land in the past year (and what's to come), Jolla announce free updates for all Jolla C2 customers, ... and, if you missed it, I managed to interview Liberux about their Nexx phone - but there's way more still, including a packed Apps section. Enjoy!
