Was able to update both of my devices (Lenovo M10 3rd Gen Tablet and Oneplus6T) and seems to be a stable release. Thanks

Looks like another nice release.

I am running 1.8.1 on a ph-1 and it shows there is no system update available. Is something misconfigured on my end or will this flow through later?

Give it a few days, the GitLab releases are always a bit early.

Hello! I bought a Fairphone 3 which came with /e/OS preinstalled some time ago. I run v0.23 (Android 9) and the system updater never shows any further updates. What options do I have to get the latest and greatest?
