Unfortunately I can not edit the first message int this thread anymore, so, please follow the next one, marked as a solution.
About the files to downloadā¦ I believe that the rules are the same for all domains independent of political agenda - you must be careful, check extensions, use antivirus software and so on 
. If I were you and worried that someone will track my downloads, I would use tor. And the last point - I did not recommend to use Yandex Browser and can not recognize how it related to the file upload serviceā¦
p.s. sorry for the bad links, fixed.

Yes, you are right, the whole installation is quite complicated and could result in some non-trivial problemsā¦ But if you are interested in some special programs I could try to rebuild that in a clean Byzantium environment like phosh-antispam.

Hi! Welcome back! 
Yes, the installation must be the same. kbd should be installed automatically as I changed dependency in phosh to mandotary.

Thanks, will try on my other none daily driver one, by the way, I received two updates on byzantium in these two weeks. I am surprised that they still the update these days while slowly working on the crimson. I hope Crimson doesnt get delayed until next year based on their one blog per month ha. anyone receive the updates from the byzamtium as I do?

And the third one is coming soon - modemmanager 1.24 (1.23.95 in fact). The most interesting feature according to news page is: support for putting modems in low-power mode during suspend.
Iām also working slowly with Crimson backports to align the versions of the most required packages to Byzantiumās one. After that I will try to migrate. Hope it will be in this year

Oh, that is not what the updates that I mentioned above. I havenāt installed urs yet but I received two updates from the purism byzantium repo, one of the package is librem5-base-default I believe. I am on a clean byzantium.
