Images[edit]

@Editor-1: The amount of images present right now is way out of proportion to the rest of the article. If you look at the article, the images take up much more space than even the text present. Likewise, there is already an image present in the infobox, so the larger image showing a desktop is simply not needed. The previous image showing the operating system on a mobile phone is much more preferable than a line of images like this. Showing the power down screen, the incoming call screen, the lock screen, and the passcode screen is extremely excessive. The middle image, i.e the one showing all the icons could used by itself since it shows a major part of the operating system without going into the needless detail of the other ones. Policy-wise, I could reduce the problem like this: The way the images are being used right now, meaning the number of them, and what they show runs afoul of WP:NOTADVERT. This edit shows a much more preferable use of images as far as I'm concerned in that it physically shows the Librem 5 which is related to PureOS, and its home screen.

Broken Link[edit]

The reference list shows a dead link for reference #1, "True Convergence is Here: PureOS 10 is Released for all Librem Products". Unfortunately, I have neither time nor experience enough any more with the wiki editor to update the link, but if anyone does, I have included the new URL below, along with the Web Archive version, which I created just now. Thanks to anyone who has time to fix it.
