@edgren aw, thanks, I like it too âđŠ It's a hackable, stylish, low-energy, and retro #rebble formerly known as #pebblewatch
I still love my Pebble watch & Iâll use it until the hardware dies. Finally took the plunge and joined Rebble.io today, was up and running in <30min!
My biggest glitch before this was that the watch time was slowing down; since the official app stopped working it had built up a ~7 minute lag. But now itâs back in sync, and I can also mess around with gratuitous watchfaces to satisfy my nerdy heart!

I would commit war crimes if it meant I'd get to own a nugget like this back when I was small and enjoying Spy Kids.

Cyberpunk is when your different smartwatches begin fighting for attention.

Final steps:
Boot the watch, if it switch on, close the case, and check if the software does it stuff :)
And yes !!
I had to reinstall the watch firmware from a #rebble app from a friend's phone on android, but I could connect to my #UbuntuTouch phone running rockwork (see https://open-store.io/app/rockwork.mzanetti ).
My #PebbleTimeSteel just works fine, I just have to re-install some watchfaces and apps then tadaa !

When Pebble shut down in 2016, a group of developers formed Rebble.io to keep the devices running.
Do you know of other instances where open source software saved something from the early grave?

My ancient Pebble 1.0 is still running (long after Pebble itself alas). Today I finally got a weather watchface to connectâI had given up on dynamically updating place/weather data, but NOAA actually connected and I now have scudding clouds to show me signs of the impending storm in Erie. Iâll try updating with more watch faces as the weather changes tomorrow! #pebblewatch #rebble #retro #retrotech #storm #winterstorm

As part of my ongoing effort to get away from big tech, I traded my Apple Watch for a #pebble time round using rebbel.io as the backend.
Better form factor, charges in 30 minutes and lasts for two days while still providing the features I use most - weather, media control, notifications, step counts, etc.
Pebble was really amazing, too bad it shut down, but we can thank the folks at #Rebble for reviving this amazing tech! #openSource #throwbackThursday #smallTech

Since switching to #Android I missed having a watch. I noticed I still needed notifications and music/podcast control. For health I'm using the Oura ring which is comfortable to sleep with and data is good.
So found out about #Rebble and took my OG #Pebble watch out of the drawer to use daily. It's about 10 years old and the battery still gets 3-4 days. The vibrate motor in this thing can wake up the dead! I forgot how loud it gets!
A poignant message from a fellow open source maintainer during #DINAcon22 on my P̔e̔b̔b̔l̔e̔ #Rebble watch: is the codebase secure? (in more ways than one)
Alors c'est cool, je viens de remettre en route ma vieille #pebble maintenant que j'ai retrouvé son cùble de chargement.
M'en vais voir ce que ça donne du cÎté de #rebble , la communauté qui semble continuer à faire vivre cette montre.
Et lĂ , c'est le drame, je ne peux pas me connecter, les choix offerts sont... pourris đ
Vais peut-ĂȘtre devoir me contenter de #gadgetbridge

Amazing hacks with NODE, wondering if someone might start doing similar for the #pebble #rebble
