Yes please update me if you remember! And likewise, the development of these projects is bringing me back some excitement I haven't felt for tech since smart phones or mp3 players came out lol

Hi there, thanks for all the great work you've been doing on this!

To answer your question about the fingerprint sensor, to me personally it doesn't matter. I've never used any biometrics on my phones. I would generally expect privacy-minded people looking for an alternative in Linux phones to feel the same way about biometrics, but maybe I'm just weird.

Just a note, if with "window manager" you mean the actual software part that does "window managing", that is already open-source. It's Lipstick and has been FOSS since, I think the beginning? The relevant parts that are closed is the UI layer, Silica, which doesn't show any signs of being open-sourced any time soon. Also various core apps are proprietary as well, I think just the browser isn't.

I knew somewhere I heard Libstick is not fully FOSS and today, while checking regular Jolla Harbour News they said

Now saying "open source parts" kinda implies it is not fully open source. That is at least my reasoning.

Anyhow they open sourced CAD models of TOH on GH so that is nice.

Not sure what to tell you, but the code is available on their GitHub organization. Both Nemo Mobile and AsteroidOS use it and have working window management and such because of it.

Btw I just read https://catcrafts.net/posts/fairphone-6-postmarketos-working-main-camera and the section "Meeting the lead pmos dev" jumped out at me. Ik ben dezelfde van Tweakers die je daar noemt ;) But I'm not the lead dev. In fact, there is no lead dev. There is the core team of which I'm part, but calling me a lead is misleading.
Also you said "can be disproved with a 10s search" but I searched for at least a minute and didn't see it. Sure I could've tried harder but then again, this was just something said under a Tweakers article, I won't dedicate to much time to it ;). I understand that you didn't like that I thought you weren't upstreaming things, but now you're calling me out as if I did something wrong while I honestly tried but just didn't manage to find anything. I rather not have us calling each other something we're not and I most definitely did my best not to.

huh? dude are you replying to the right comment? When did we talk about these thing you speak of? What is this of "10s search" and upstreaming? I said nothing of that sorts.
