postmarketOS Podcast

So what is Megapixels? Not only that is answered, but we also take a deep dive into technical details of our favorite camera application. Besides that we cover the new release, new devices, and a whole bunch of other news.

Featuring @craftyguy, @dylanvanassche, @ollieparanoid, @MartijnBraam (in order of appearance). Send in your questions and feedback with #postmarketOSpodcast on Mastodon - it's not like we don't have enough content without questions... but if you submit a good one we might squeeze it into a future episode!
