  Oh, since there is a Debian package available, the process is far more simple than with the AppImage. I assume you have already created a container? If so, you can tap the + button in the container settings and choose "Enter package name or Debian file". A prompt ask you for the package name - where you type (exactly) musescore and push "Ok". Then you wait and the App while the app is being installed. After some time, it will appear in the X-Apps Scope. I just tried it on my M10. Although the user interface is very tiny, the program starts. Hope this helps :)

  I would love to have something like live search suggestions. Especially in foreign countries where you not always know how to spell street names correctly this would be extremely helpfull! Would be amazing to implement this function like it works for example with graphhopper.com/maps/ or other navigation tools.

  Progress update: I managed to get Bluetooth working, currently investigating ways on how to enable audio support. Out-of-the-box ALSA-only audio seems to be further away than anticipated. If anyone with a Sony Xperia X (single- or dual-SIM) would like to help, contributions are welcome. :)

  May be I am wrong but I didn't find blog texts in translate.ubports.com. It would be nice if they could also be translated.

  So, I've had a chat with Gerry Boland (former primary developer of QtMir) and while this is not entirely straightforward to adapt QtMir to it does look feasible. The relevant changes would be in MirSurfaceItem. Excerpts of the relevant IRC log: to provide shaders, need to implement QSGMaterial somehow - https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qsgsimplematerialshader.html and then use it in https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qsggeometrynode.html#setMaterial https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/70577/7/lib/yuv_video_node.cpp looks vaguely appropriate. YUVAVideoMaterial is an implementation of QSGMaterial, whose createShader() implementation returns that handy QSGMaterialShader I think that's a good template to follow QtMir would need to have a QSGMaterial that also derived from mir::graphics::gl::Program, and took the necessary shader fragments and smushed them into the shader source it returns. Provide that as the mir::graphics::gl::ProgramFactory and then the Texture will supply you with the appropriate QSGMaterial

  Great idea. Another angle similar to that is getting local colleges/universities aware through their Computer Science Clubs (some actually have FOSS/linux clubs too). Having them cover it, and in turn the university papers, could not just bring in new people, but new volunteers to the project. Anyway, whether it is a school paper, or local/national, press release templates are a good way to jump start that so folks don't have to "create from scratch" every single time. I wonder building something like this would be helpful in getting folks the confidence to share...essentially, a press page is a bunch of templates that makes it easier for reporters to cover it. The press page contains a "press kit"...sometimes in the page, and in zip folders (with logos, headshots of core devs, origin story summarized, etc.) https://zapier.com/blog/best-press-kit/

  @aury88 That's true, my mistake. I read a time ago that there are deb based images for raspi 2 + 3. Maybe they call it different - can't find the name of the project.
