It’s mid-August! This particular summer has flown by, and a new tech “high season” is upon us. Meanwhile, let’s see what happened from June to today, in this selection of tweets.
The Xperia 10 have 2 front cameras and the problem arises. Sailfish OS would need a method to support a second main camera.
Michał Szczepaniak wrote alone a basic support, a sign that a support could come from Jolla?
Get on my level! Multiple (2+) cameras support written entirely by me! #jolla #sailfishos #verdanditeam pic.twitter.com/zzU7SZ1n0Z

A minimal solution could be a separate app focused only on wide cameras, a bit like the old app for Meego Harmattan Front Camera which enabled … selfies! (Not supported by the N9).
The Covid-19 is an ever-present threat, and Sailfish OS does not implement the iOS-Android tracking system. Even national apps like Immuni, based on Google Services, don’t work.
For those who want to collaborate with tracking (in countries where an “open” tracking is active) there is Contrac, developed by David Llewellyn-Jones.
Version 0.1.1 of Contrac, the #CoronaWarnApp compatible contact tracing app for #SailfishOS is now available from OpenRepos. This version supports diagnosis key upload/download (but only set to work with a test server right now).https://t.co/ZeD9tYYqvL pic.twitter.com/fVkz2yLh24

Does it what! The worst thing about #SailfishOS is the lack of a competent web browser. Yes, I've tried all the alternatives, but none of them is good enough. I now have Android Firefox on my XA2 Plus as a backup, but a native Sailfish Firefox would be fantastic. https://t.co/fwBs1FUP49

It’s 2020 and there isn’t a new browser, or some Firefox or Opera porting.
I’m appreciating Webcat by Leszek Lesner: its browser is based Chromium and full of features.
Thanks @CMaradonna for reminding me how cool this is! 😊 Couldn't find my #TOHKBD though… 😞#Jolla #Jolla1 #TheOtherHalfhttps://t.co/iDqFsbJA3T pic.twitter.com/6EhHQCTdyN

@JollaHQ hello, the battery of my #Jolla phone looks almost dead :/ Is it possible to order a new one from the Jolla shop or do you recommend another store?
— BaptX (@baptx) June 30, 2020
For JP1 users: the battery will likely be at the end of its life in 2020. Fortunately it is removable and user replaceable.
You can find some on ebay
