Fossery Tech :debian: :gnome:<p>GTK 4.18 drops old GL renderer, breaking Megapixels camera app (and potentially some other apps) on PinePhones with Arch Linux (ARM), Alpine/postmarketOS edge, Fedora 42, Alpine 3.22/postmarketOS 25.06, NixOS 25.05, and Debian 13 "Trixie" systems, some workarounds include installing the Flatpak version of Megapixels, or running it in an Alpine 3.21 Distrobox container:<br><a href="https://linmob.net/gtk-418-the-pinephone-and-megapixels/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">linmob.net/gtk-418-the-pinepho</span><span class="invisible">ne-and-megapixels/</span></a><br>(PinePhone's camera isn't the best anyways, but regardless it's sad to see it aging, it's basically the only affordable Linux phone on the market (unless you're a rich guy). Luckily I don't use a lot of apps on my phone as I prefer desktop for 99% of things, but since Google made some steps towards killing off custom roms (by restricting public access to smaller AOSP updates, and giving app devs the option to block sideloading), Linux phones have a crutial role in smartphone privacy, and it shouldn't be only for the rich. Of course, some Android phones are supported by UBports and postmarketOS but most mobile distros don't support many Android devices, users are left with less options.)<br>(With that being said, PinePhone has the most supported distros (20+) but ironically all of them are either unstable or has missing support for features like Bluetooth or GPS, with this dropped GL renderer, there might be even more issues in the future.)</p><p>(more Linux news in original post)<br>(FOSS news in comment)</p><p><a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/WeeklyNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WeeklyNews</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/News" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>News</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/LinuxNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LinuxNews</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/GTK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GTK</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/GTK4" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GTK4</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/postmarketOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>postmarketOS</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/ArchARM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArchARM</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/PinePhone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PinePhone</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/LinuxMobile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LinuxMobile</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/MobileLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MobileLinux</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/MobileOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MobileOS</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/FosseryTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FosseryTech</span></a></p>
