The FOMO got to me and I bought an M-Vave FM-1. I am so weak.
@bloke_zero oh fun! I'll try to use a hashtag when I get mine in a couple of weeks and start playing so we can all keep up with the goings on.
@alisynthesis Aww it's so cute! And cheap!
@alisynthesis only seems to be sold thru amazon and walmart, which is sufficient for me to not get one (but i was tempted, especially the orange one!)
@ranjit yes, I bought the orange one from the evil empire.
See, I was happily pretending not to be interested until you mentioned they did an orange one...
@keefmarshall @ranjit ONE OF US. ONE OF US.
@alisynthesis I just bought two of those. One for experimenting with firmware, and one for experimenting with other firmware.
@BorrisInABox I'm still denying myself one FM1 per firmware 🤣
@alisynthesis which color did you get? I got the black one...
any thoughs on which firmware you like most?
@dec_hl I got the orange!
I haven't really started to explore the various firmware list yet...have just seen a few here and there, and they seem to be breeding like rabbits at this point. 😆 Any recommendations?

I played around with BaudGirl, Felucca and SLOOP for 1-2h, so far no real favorite. Just amazed how much development there is (even if some of it might be slop)...
I think they look like great fun!
@alisynthesis I saw a review of one a while back, and went, oh, OK, it's Dext in a box. Then that got a lot more interesting real fast.
@BorrisInABox I think it's pretty cool (and smart business) that the company is embracing the custom firmware wave.
@alisynthesis me too! Exciting! Looking to try the alt firmware
