Its just that none of the maintainers has a pinephone

Though it would probably be trivial to just copy what the non-atomic Fedora Mobility does for pinephones, I might as well do this in the future and just ask someone with a pinephone to test


I have a PinePhone (original KDE Community Edition, convergence variant). I'd be more than happy to test for you! Email address in my profile :)

There's also Poco F1, we just haven't released it yet, and I am yet to add it to the docs (we'll have a single common image for both op6(t) and beryllium soon)

There's also a person working on a Fairphone 5 support and I think someone was going to work on a PinePhone port

Contributions are always welome, we need more devices!


Just out of curiosity (not knowing anything about the complexity of adding new devices) what makes the support of a Xiaomi pad 5 and pad 6 possible, while there is not support for the pad 7 and 8?

Are these devices so different that none of the testing and development work is transferable to the newer devices?

And, reversing the question, if one was to be the owner of a such a Xiaomi device, what can be done to help them being supported?


No shade meant by the way, I fully understand how difficult it must be to support devices. Good luck!
