The April bullettin

The period after the MWC Barcelona is usually very quiet, but not this year. There have been many little news.

First of all, the devices:

The F(x)tec Pro1

Following @chenliangchen‘s tweets we discover that the project of the new F(x)tec Pro 1 continues.
Apparently there is already a working adaptation:

But how is the F(x)Tec? 
It’s so nice, looking at this recorded gif. The Pro 1 is sleek but ALSO has a physical keyboard.
It’s not bulky.

Who needs a foldable #mobile #phone when you can get one with a "click" 😉 @VentureBeat shares their thoughts on their first look at the #Pro1 here: https://t.co/5VfzZmr6vS #functioniskey #android #qwerty #keyboard pic.twitter.com/4O3ZWHtZwV

To follow the progresses, follow directly F(x)Tec Twitter.

The most important news: the union of Sailfish and Mer.

merproject.org and sailfishos.org will be gradually merged into one platform, Sailfishos.org.

Here is the important step:

What will this mean in practice?

I’d like to just say that the colours of the websites will change and we’ll be able to access the existing resources using new sailfishos.org links…

At the end of all of this you’ll be able to manage your sailfishos.org account online, which also makes it easier for people to join and start contributing to the code.

Pingvini is one of the few native Twitter client for Sailfish OS.

One more thing…

As noticed by Katze, Sailfish has a pornhub client. 😊
Maybe it’s a sign that Sailfish is becoming mainstream?

> this is it: Sailfish OS now has a pornhub client. This is a milestone. 😉https://t.co/APfbUUhISj
