@petitmote @e_mydata @gael @murena Same question, firmware security flaws might be an issue. Still, this is just awesome. The longer a device gets official support of some sort the better.

@petitmote @Natanox @e_mydata Yes, hasn't the official one been deprecated anyway?

@pixelcode @Natanox @e_mydata it's still updated every month, and there is no information about that on the device page. That's why I'm asking this today.

@npettiaux @e_mydata @gael @murena c'est étrange, il y en a tous les mois. Je suggère de réinstaller, tu es peut-être sur un build non officiel.

Ça, c'est monstre cool !
Il y a une année, j'ai offert un #Fairphone3 à mon fils. Content d'apprendre qu'il sera encore supporté deux ans.
Merci pour votre super travail !
Continuez comme-ça !

#Fairphone #Fairphone3 #Privacy #OpenSource @gael @murena@e_mydata @gael @murena now we only need 3rd party batteries...

Since #Fairphone is about to discontinue the #support for the #Fairphone3plus, I wounder if anyone is able and/or willing to build i.e. an adator backplate to chug like a 21700 or a pair of 18650s if not #LiFePO4 #batteries to it. - I kinda need a solution due to #DangerPillow syndrome…

@pixelcode @petitmote @Natanox @e_mydata well, #Fairphone did mail out that they #EoL #Firmware #Updates in August 2026.

@murena @jill @e_mydata @gael 6 years and 5 months. Without #blisslauncher

@sorenladegaard, I got the part about 2 years from day X, thank you
I am wondering about the actual _date_ or at least month + year
@hook @sorenladegaard @e_mydata @gael
We haven't set a specific date yet, but providing support beyond two years could pose a significant challenge both technically and in terms of the workload. -

But in any case it would be (cca.) in 2028 or which year? It's hard to keep track of all EOL and their extensions for a normal user/consumer

@kkarhan @pixelcode @petitmote @e_mydata The EU should force all hardware manufacturers to open-source their firmwares upon abandonment… not a criticism of Fairphone, but in this case I guess of Qualcomm.

@hook @sorenladegaard @e_mydata @gael Exactly, in 2028, but we'll surely share the information before it happens. Just stay tuned or subscribe to our newsletter to not miss any important announcements: https://newsletter.murena.io
