I see that ntfy has an Open Collective but I don't see the option to donate using that. Will ntfy change this in the future ?

I recently installed Guix in hopes of learning to use it. I wanted to update the system and gathered from the reference card that the proper command was "guix pull". My issue is that while no error message is given this didn't seem to update anything after. One thing that makes me think this is that I'm still on the 6.0.10 kernel as I was before. Am I doing this wrong ?

Are there any plans to add support for full disk encryption in an installer for the RockPro64 like the Pinephone and Pinetab have ?

I had a person ask me the other day if I knew of any stores that sell hardware with Linux preinstalled in Africa; Latin America or Russia and I couldn't think of any. I know plenty in Europe; U.S.A. and Canada but none for those places. Do any of you know of any ? They didn't mean stores that will ship there but stores that are based there.

Ubuntu has announced support for The PolarFire SoC FPGA Icicle Kit RISC-V Board. I am not always a huge fan of Ubuntu but if you're looking to get into RISC-V boards they seem to be always on the forefront of support. RISC-V is a great platform to get into as many boards have an open source BIOS and the architecture as a whole is a lot more open than x86.

The board can be found on Mouser among other stores.

Are there any VPN's that work on PostmarketOS ? I would be using on the Pinephone CE; Pinebook Pro and Rock Pro 64. I usually use Proton VPN or Mullvad but i'm not overly picky.

I recently received my MSI PRO Z690-A DDR4 motherboard from Dasharo. It came with version 1.0 which from what I understand has a different update process than later versions. Am I correct in understanding that I need to open a Terminal and type in "flashrom -p internal -w [path] --ifd -i bios" substituting the path bit there with the actual path to the file I downloaded ? Figured I would ask first before diving in.

I have recently got PostmarketOS setup on my Pinebook pro and am enjoying it. I am missing a few programs from my desktop though and was wondering if there is a way to get them on PostmarketOS. They are Plank and Psensor. If Plank is a no go is there a way to adjust Gnome Dash to always be visible ?

Does anybody know of a Swiss based server for Matrix ?

Can anybody reccomend a FOSS replacement for the museum software PastPerfect ? Needs to be available for Windows 10. I was able to find CollectiveAccess and CollectionSpace but neither seem very easy to get setup. “CollectiveAccess” for instance needs to be built from source. This museum has novices at best when it comes to tech.

I'm trying to install PostmarketOS onto my Nexus 5 but when I type "pmbootstrap init" into my terminal I get "command not found". It is installed through the AUR on my Garuda system. When I type "pmbootstrap --version" I get back "1.42.0" so it seems to be installed and detected. Any ideas ?

I currently only use PostmarketOS on my Pinephone CE and PineTab. On the Pinephone CE I find I can sometimes go from a full charge to 50% or less within 4-5 hours which is keeping it from being my daily driver. I know this is still being worked on but for anyone who has used PostmarketOS on other devices, is there a phone you could recommend that would give me about 11 hours of life between charges ? My main uses are FluffyChat; Tootle and light web browsing ? I usually use Phosh if that matters.
