  * LINK:
    https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/community-meeting-on-23rd-april-2026/29030/3
    (rainemak, 16:05:25)
  * No actions taken yet regarding community task board.  (rainemak,
    16:05:25)
  * nephros, community  (nephros, 16:07:49)

* cable/charger requirements (10 mins -- ngt)  (rainemak, 16:11:22)
  * <ngt> Jolla mentioned in an earlier community meeting that there
    will  (rainemak, 16:11:22)
  * <ngt> likely be no charger and cable in the box (to reduce eWaste).
    For  (rainemak, 16:11:22)
  * <ngt> the few people that weren’t using a smartphone with USB-C
    before,  (rainemak, 16:11:22)
  * <ngt> are there any recommendations (or requirements) we should look
    for  (rainemak, 16:11:22)
  * <ngt> when buying a new charger and/or cable? And at which point
    would you  (rainemak, 16:11:24)
  * <ngt> recommend getting a new cable/charger?  (rainemak, 16:11:25)
  * <ngt>  (rainemak, 16:11:27)
  * <ngt> EDIT: Since posting the original question I started thinking
    about  (rainemak, 16:11:29)
  * <ngt> not buying a new cable/charger since I found a charging-only
    (rainemak, 16:11:31)
  * <ngt> USB-C-to-A cable that I could reuse with one of my old
    chargers or  (rainemak, 16:11:33)
  * <ngt> my laptop.  (rainemak, 16:11:35)
  * <ngt> - Do we need a cable that supports data-transfers during setup
    (like  (rainemak, 16:11:37)
  * <ngt>   on Android/iOS) or does it work wirelessly or is this
    (rainemak, 16:11:41)
  * <ngt>   unsupported/only supported with newer Android/iOS devices
    (in  (rainemak, 16:11:43)
  * <ngt>   which case that might not matter)?  (rainemak, 16:11:45)
  * <ngt> - Did you test charging speeds using a USB(-A) port (If I
    recall  (rainemak, 16:11:47)
  * <ngt>   correctly they are standardized)?  (rainemak, 16:11:49)
  * <Jolla> Power delivery (PD) 3.0 charges are good. We'll come back
    with recommendations later. Two follow up questios, you do not need
    cable for datas-transfers during the setup. We'll update on the
    charging speeds as well later along with charger recommendations.
    (rainemak, 16:11:51)
  * ACTION: Jolla to update regarding recommended charging cables and
    chargers.  (rainemak, 16:12:43)

* Bug bounty program for Jolla (15 mins -- roundedrectangle)  (rainemak,
  16:20:02)
  * <roundedrectangle> Does Jolla have something like a bug bounty
    program? If  (rainemak, 16:20:03)
  * <roundedrectangle> someone would find and provide to Jolla a serious
    (rainemak, 16:20:03)
  * <roundedrectangle> security flaw which would allow the attacker to
    access  (rainemak, 16:20:03)
  * <roundedrectangle> user’s private data, view confidential
    information  (rainemak, 16:20:03)
  * <roundedrectangle> related to copyrighted Jolla materials which
    should not  (rainemak, 16:20:04)
  * <roundedrectangle> be publicly available, and/or affect the
    usability of  (rainemak, 16:20:05)
  * <roundedrectangle> the Jolla services (take them down for a serious
    amount  (rainemak, 16:20:07)
  * <roundedrectangle> of time (crash), or limit their functionality),
    would  (rainemak, 16:20:11)
  * <roundedrectangle> they get rewarded for that? Where should one
    contact  (rainemak, 16:20:13)
  * <roundedrectangle> Jolla for reporting the vulnerability, regardless
    of  (rainemak, 16:20:15)
  * <roundedrectangle> the answer to previous question?  (rainemak,
    16:20:17)
  * <Jolla> We do not have a bug bounty program. Interesting idea
    though.  (rainemak, 16:20:19)
  * <Jolla> You can report vulnerability by emailing to
    security@jolla.com.  (rainemak, 16:20:21)
  * CLMA31, community  (CLMA31[m], 16:28:47)

* Including the package
  “usb-moded-connection-sharing-android-connman-config“ by default (5
  mins -- Sanginteret)  (rainemak, 16:30:07)
  * <Sanginteret> I recently reinstalled my Sailfish OS phone and spent
    about  (rainemak, 16:30:07)
  * <Sanginteret> an hour trying to figure out why USB tethering was
    missing.  (rainemak, 16:30:07)
  * <Sanginteret> After several restarts and cable changes, I checked
    the wiki  (rainemak, 16:30:07)
  * <Sanginteret> and found that I needed to install a package. This
    feature  (rainemak, 16:30:08)
  * <Sanginteret> is present by default on other smartphones. Maybe it
    should  (rainemak, 16:30:12)
  * <Sanginteret> also be enabled by default on Sailfish OS.  (rainemak,
    16:30:14)
  * <Jolla> Thank you for raising this one.  (rainemak, 16:30:16)
  * <Jolla> It's still hacky. So, like it is now it won't be added to
    images  (rainemak, 16:30:18)
  * <Jolla> by default.  (rainemak, 16:30:20)

* Move to European code repository (5 mins -- Fuzzillogic)  (rainemak,
  16:36:22)
  * <Fuzzillogic> Jolla presents Sailfish OS as “the only European
    mobile OS”,  (rainemak, 16:36:22)
  * <Fuzzillogic> which powers “the independent European Do It Together
    Linux  (rainemak, 16:36:22)
  * <Fuzzillogic> Phone”.  (rainemak, 16:36:23)
  * <Fuzzillogic> Yet, all the public development and developer
    information is  (rainemak, 16:36:23)
  * <Fuzzillogic> hosted on GitHub: Sailfish OS · GitHub.  (rainemak,
    16:36:24)
  * <Fuzzillogic>  (rainemak, 16:36:25)
  * <Fuzzillogic> In the previous community meeting, there was a
    question  (rainemak, 16:36:27)
  * <Fuzzillogic> about a Community Task Board, and rainemak suggested
    to host  (rainemak, 16:36:29)
  * <Fuzzillogic> this on GitHub as well: #sailfishos-meeting log
    (rainemak, 16:36:31)
  * <Fuzzillogic>  (rainemak, 16:36:33)
  * <Fuzzillogic> Claiming to be the European alternative, while
    continuing  (rainemak, 16:36:35)
  * <Fuzzillogic> (and even doubling down on) using non-European code
    (rainemak, 16:36:37)
  * <Fuzzillogic> repository provider smells like “EU-washing”.
    (rainemak, 16:36:41)
  * <Fuzzillogic>  (rainemak, 16:36:43)
  * <Fuzzillogic> Does Jolla have plans to move to a European-based code
    (rainemak, 16:36:45)
  * <Fuzzillogic> reposity, or self-host it?  (rainemak, 16:36:47)
  * <Fuzzillogic>  (rainemak, 16:36:49)
  * <Fuzzillogic> P.s. Earlier I opened a post here with the question
    Move to  (rainemak, 16:36:51)
  * <Fuzzillogic> European code repository?. Unfortunately no response
    there  (rainemak, 16:36:53)
  * <Fuzzillogic> from Jolla.  (rainemak, 16:36:55)
  * LINK:
    https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/move-to-european-code-repository/27242
    (rainemak, 16:36:57)
  * <Jolla> Currently we do not have plans to change our code
    repositories.  (rainemak, 16:36:59)

    (Dante2, 16:42:45)

* About the post that Jolla shared on April 29th. (5 mins --
  Polatbirdal)  (rainemak, 16:45:07)
  * <Polatbirdal> I wanted to ask about the article in this image — in
    which  (rainemak, 16:45:07)
  * <Polatbirdal> direction is this solution currently progressing? Will
    it be  (rainemak, 16:45:07)
  * <Polatbirdal> about entering other marketplace areas? Or will it be
    more  (rainemak, 16:45:07)
  * <Polatbirdal> like reaching out to more users and offering them the
    best  (rainemak, 16:45:07)
  * <Polatbirdal> alternatives?  (rainemak, 16:45:08)
  * LINK: https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/29253/7   (rainemak, 16:45:12)
  * <Jolla> Thank you for asking. We'll update when there is something
    to  (rainemak, 16:45:14)
  * <Jolla> update.  (rainemak, 16:45:16)

* Special Edition Back Cover for batch 1-3 (15 mins -- ngt)  (rainemak,
  16:50:49)
  * <ngt> What did you mean with “Back Cover”? There seem to be
    different  (rainemak, 16:50:50)
  * <ngt> definitions. Based on the name and the picture (a line drawing
    of  (rainemak, 16:50:50)
  * <ngt> a case or the Jolla Phone) that was used next to it on the
    (rainemak, 16:50:50)
  * <ngt> preorder page, I previously assumed it meant a case covering
    the  (rainemak, 16:50:50)
  * <ngt> back (which is similar to how other companies use the term).
    Some  (rainemak, 16:50:50)
  * <ngt> things I’ve read since, however, sound more like an additional
    (rainemak, 16:50:52)
  * <ngt> back side. This wouldn’t match with Jolla wanting to reduce
    (rainemak, 16:50:54)
  * <ngt> e-waste, which was mentioned in a previous community meeting,
    and  (rainemak, 16:50:56)
  * <ngt> would be less “compatible” with the selected phone color (i.
    e. it  (rainemak, 16:50:58)
  * <ngt> would replace the selected color).  (rainemak, 16:51:00)
  * <Jolla> This looks like pretty much covered in the Forum already.
    (rainemak, 16:51:03)
  * <Jolla> Back cover product product page starts like this:
    (rainemak, 16:51:04)
  * <Jolla> "Remember those times that you were able to change your
    phone  (rainemak, 16:51:06)
  * <Jolla> appearance with a simple snap-on covers?"  (rainemak,
    16:51:08)
  * LINK: https://commerce.jolla.com/products/jolla-phone-back-cover
    (rainemak, 16:51:12)
  * <Jolla> We call it back cover and yes it's ToH as well. When talking
    about  (rainemak, 16:51:18)
  * <Jolla> ToH, one would easily expect some functionality. Protective
    (rainemak, 16:51:18)
  * <Jolla> covers / cases / sleeves are different.  (rainemak,
    16:51:20)
  * <Jolla>  (rainemak, 16:51:32)
  * <Jolla> When it comes to "Special Edition Back Cover" for batches
    #1, #2  (rainemak, 16:51:32)
  * <Jolla> and #3. It is a limited early supporters special edition
    back  (rainemak, 16:51:32)
  * <Jolla> cover. The design is undisclosed for time being. Something
    one  (rainemak, 16:51:32)
  * <Jolla> cannot buy and exclusive to pre-order batches #1, #2 and #3.

    (Dante2, 16:54:27)

* Open Pull Requests (PRs) to discussion (5 mins -- asked by Jolla)
  (rainemak, 17:01:47)

* General discussion (10 mins or so)  (rainemak, 17:10:04)

* Next meeting time and date (2 mins)  (rainemak, 17:21:25)
  * Next meeting will be held on Thursday 21st May 2026 at 04:00pm UTC:
    2026-05-21T1600Z  (rainemak, 17:22:49)
