  Many thanks, advocatux. Edited the earlier post. I had noted the similarities to Markdown but it had somehow escaped my imagination that it actually was markdown. (I also don't know Markdown all that well, so I doubly appreciate the link.)

  @advocatux said in Any plans to have encryption as an option in future Ubuntu Touch installers?: @Opolork probably that'll be easier on non Android devices than the Android ones. Android devices impose many limitation on us, like for example, we can't re-lock the bootloader currently and things like that. On the other hand, and at your own risk, you can experiment with some approach like this https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1012/one-method-to-encrypt-home-phablet I think I'll give that a miss.

  @dieharddan I think the top bar is one of the really good design features of UT: it breaks system settings into logical groups, and they're literally one slide of a finger away. It also goes beyond just being a settings feature, with the calendar, and the email/matrix notification functions. Personally I'd like to see that extended more, but I know I'm in a minority on that one. Making the top bar itself customizable is an interesting idea though: I never use the Files or Language settings, for example, but I know that other people do. And they're always available under the settings icon, of course, for those odd times when they are needed.

  Has anyone already tried to port to LG Spirit 4G (c70n)? I will start to port my first device tomorrow. My resources: https://github.com/MobiusM/android_device_lge_c70n https://github.com/MobiusM/android_vendor_lge_c70n https://github.com/MobiusM/android_kernel_lge_msm8916 Currently I'm installing LineageOS 14.1 on the device: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767145998 (also from MobiusM) https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71207193&postcount=1956 https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-spirit/help/lg-spirit-h440n-thread-t3108435

  @dobey said in New Launcher, edge channel.: @TotalSonic said in New Launcher, edge channel.: I think the ultimate plan (or at least one possible one) is to allow people to place widgets and launchers on the wallpaper background as if it was a "home" (same as if it was a non-vanilla-Gnome-3 desktop) - but that this will take time to code and the need to streamline the code and image size to what can be easily maintained makes the first step of getting rid of Scopes one that will have to happen in order to make any forward progress from there. Best regards, Steve Berson It has been an idea that a few people have mentioned. There is currently no plan to do it (nor do I think should there be, as it's not a convergent feature). I don't see why allowing icons and widgets on a "home" background (whether mobile, tablet, or desktop) would be consodered "not a convergent feature" when that feature is an integral part of most OS's in all 3 form factors. I do agree that coding that feature to be truly convergent would likely be difficult, and as such should not be a priority for the UBports team. Best regards, Steve Berson

  I don't know much about technology, but if it's possible, there will certainly be inspiration in each browser for each of the designers. I strongly hope so !!
