In this talk we briefly present Sxmo and share the current state of things. Sxmo is a hacker-friendly mobile UI for Linux phones, like those running on postmarketOS. Our approach differs from what the mobile user is accustomed too, but one that will appeal to those drawn to software minimalism and those with an urge to tweak and control their system to the max! We tie together various FOSS components, some interchangeable, via POSIX shell scripts. Through our hook system users can customize these to a large extent.

• Do you want to SSH into your phone and have all functionality available remotely?
• Do you like the idea of running a tiling window manager (sway, dwm) on your phone just like on your desktop?
• Do feel nostalgia for operating your phone with menus (dmenu, bemenu, wofi) and hardware buttons?
• Do you want to be the one in control of our own device and data, rather than be on the leash of big tech companies?

Then this talk may be interesting for you!
