Almost at Beta! - Cree - 10-12-2020
Whatever that means.... So Manjaro is now listing their next upcoming PHOSH build as a Beta! Sure sounds better than Alpha! Hopefully it will all be there. That said, im not sure what more to expect. It seems like everything has worked at one point or another and the last thing is for everything to work at the same time, and hopefully faster! Having said that i cant say the indication I've got is that it will be a significant leap from where we already are, but hey if they're confident enough to call it Beta, that will make it a pinephone first!
I still think the Arch alpha seems slightly ahead however. Cant wait for Lomiri to reach Beta or 1.0

as a long time i3wm user, it's everything I hoped for in a Linux build.
the window manager is dwm, so it basically screams minimalist from the get go
