It seems like many things have improved in #servo since I've last checked it out. Performance isn't perfect, but it does still manage to reach 60-70 FPS while screen recording on a Fairphone 5 (~90 without).
Plenty of work left to do before I can ship it as an alternative engine, but I think this time it might make it upstream rather than sitting in a branch for another year.
Catacomb's latest 1.3.0 release fixes an interesting issue:
Apparently on the PinePhone (Pro) when disabling `eg25-manager`, libinput generates a bunch of `XF86WakeUp` press/release events, ultimately ending up with the key permanently pressed. Since Catacomb supports multi-key bindings, it wouldn't trigger bindings anymore, since it only looked at the ones with `XF86WakeUp` active.
@gnulinux Neben Catacomb ist Phosh definitiv auch eine Benutzeroberfläche für "Nutzer ohne Nerd-Ambitionen" (wobei mobiles Linux wohl überwiegend genau diese Nutzer sind 
).
Auch wenn GTK4 auf dem PinePhone etwas schwächelt, ist das denke ich die Desktopumgebung mit den meisten Entwicklern.
Für Nutzer welche mit Catacomb nichts anfangen können ist es aber trotzedem ein Projekt welches man mal ausprobieren sollte.
@allpurposemat If it says capabilities, that means it's available but not enabled.
It should look like the following picture. So it's NMEA capable, it's enabled, AND it's refreshing every X seconds. If any of this is missing, whatever you use to enable GPS isn't doing it right.
@allpurposemat I'm testing with my own map app and my NMEA location positioning has been very accurate, even inside my apartment.
I would recommend just checking with `mmcli -m any --location-get` and trying to parse the NMEA GPS data by hand. If that gets you accurate data, it should just be a matter of finding an app that works for you.
Also make sure NMEA is actually enabled with `--location-status`. I could imagine that just 3gpp could be quite inaccurate, which is the default.
@allpurposemat GPS routing using NMEA GPS should work. You need to have the modem-gnss service running and that enables NMEA GPS to work through ModemManager.
It might be time to give Servo embedding another try for Kumo.
Having a full Rust stack would certainly make patching things easier compared to the current WPE WebKit backend.
