The developers of postmarketOS have successfully made a breakthrough to import and swiftly run the OS in Sony Xperia Z2 tablet. And to further deliver smooth user experience, the developers tried to get KDE’s Plasma Mobile running on devices with postmarketOS. On some level, and it was a success. It was also discovered that Plasma can run on the devices which already ran the Wayland reference compositor Weston, which was the first interface that ran on postmarketOS devices.
Moving ahead on the train of success, the posmarketOS teams have also achieved some success in porting LuneOS' interface on top devices like Google Nexus 6P, Motorola Droid 4, and Teclast X80 Pro. To get more on the update, you can read about different milestones in the process in the official blog post which serves as an update on the progress made
