Google agreed to release Pebble OS to the public. As of Monday, all the Pebble firmware is available on GitHub, and Migicovsky is starting a company to pick up where he left off.
The company — which can’t be named Pebble because Google still owns that — doesn’t have a name yet. For now, Migicovsky is hosting a waitlist and news signup at a website called RePebble. Later this year, once the company has a name and access to all that Pebble software, the plan is to start shipping new wearables that look, feel, and work like the Pebbles of old.
I’m hoping someone else comes up with a better open source service
Than matrix? Me, too. It’s so complex, cumbersome, and full of half-functional clients.
Thankfully someone invented xmpp omemo way back in the day.
XMPP is a mess as well.
