Fairphone 6 and PostmarketOS working main camera

This is awesome stuff. Fully mainstream Linux with a normal userland running on a modern handset with all features will unlock a tremendous amount of change once it's there.

Things like running a distributed database for a community on top of the devices they own, hopefully also running true mesh networking.

The part about getting authorized to test the emergency calling capabilities is cool! I should've expected that would be a thing but I didn't ever consider it.

Awesome! There are so many cool things we could be doing with our phones if they weren't locked to a single OS

Does ubuntu touch or postmarket os work reliably on the fairphone 6 now, or is this still just components working? Is it possible to use it as a daily driver?

What is that bit about Bedrijfsaansprakelijkheids­verzekering at the end? I've never heard of business liability insurance before. Does Germany not have an equivalent of an LLC?

This aged well

I see AF algo has some trouble with defocussing a perfectly sharp scene for no reason. :)

Does this HW have access to PDAF pixel data?

Awesome

wow amazing

Great job.

My advice would be to not take the frustrating and useless road of a non-profit structure for some things that you do for pleasure.

The for-profit will be simpler and give you more liberties, and if, in the end, you have the good mindset that you want your creations to be shared freely, you can do it anyway. It is a state of mind.

PostmarketOS can't partner with any OEM/ODM and volunteers have to use hacks to unofficially implement basic Android 1.0 functionality years after a device was released? That's sad to see. This is just lame, drivers should be implemented by those who work on them..

We had Librem 5 which had real OS support that didn't have to rely on third-party volunteers, I wish they released something more modern..
