To users of the postmarketOS Matrix and IRC channels: Looks like Matrix is shutting down the IRC bridge to OFTC that we are currently using soon. We are considering whether to selfhost / possibly use an alternative public bridge instance / maaaybe it is not worth keeping a bridge around at all (meaning that we would move to matrix only) :blobthinkingeyes: Is it important to you that we keep a Matrix <> IRC bridge around? #postmarketos

xiaomi-davinci & xiaomi-surya now use u-boot and are merged into a generic qcom-sm7150 port: > […] U-Boot comes with an EFI implementation that lets us boot the Linux kernel with systemd-boot and have U-Boot pick the correct devicetree blob instead of appending it to the kernel. > This means that as long as a device is supported by the SM7150 Linux kernel fork and U-Boot, it can boot postmarketOS with no changes needed in postmarketOS! Well done @npub1f36q...pk0l! 🎉
