Normally don't think these style updates fit here all the time but Elisa (music player) looks quite good and being able to get USSD codes and DTMF tones working in the dialer of the PinePhone is a great QoL improvement for those looking to go all-in on a Linux device.

How do they not? This is literally a community about Linux phones, and these are updates for one of the big Linux mobile platforms.

Hmm I guess I phrased that badly, but if the update is over desktop aspects or would have featured say a redesign that wasn't as readily usable on a mobile device like the PinePhone I wouldnt have posted it (if that makes sense?).

I liked this update since it was specific with the benefits to mobile users with examples given, and I think my statement of reluctance is to do with my thoughts not fully shifting into the "one UI" mentality that is possible; it'll catch up with me eventually!

Well you're posting a blog of the Plasma Mobile team, it'll always be about phone specific stuff lol.
