Did you know that @purism is working towards a new release for the #Librem5 #FOSS phone?

The name of this new version is #Crimson. Crimson will be the next version of the PureOS #Linux distribution for the Librem 5.

#Purism only earns once money on their sell of a #phone, because Purism is not selling your data.

Since July 2024 you can take an optional subscription to advance the #PureOS development.

Since then there has been a monthly report on the progress.

PureOS Crimson Development Report: December 2024:

"With the latest package updates combined with the latest image tools, we now have initial #PureOS #Crimson images for the #Librem5!"

Note that these images are in an early development state and need a lot of testing, but very good to see the steady progress.

This progress is partially funded by the pure optional PureOS subscriptions.

[« Words and illumination »…] Peter #Sinfield, a co-founder of prog rockers King #Crimson who went on to a successful pop songwriting career has died aged 80.
King Crimson announced the news, describing him as the band’s “original roadie, lyricist, lights operator and live sound engineer”.
Sinfield was born in London and lived an itinerant and bohemian youth, including spells in Spain and Morocco – he later described himself as King Crimson’s “pet hippie”.
