    @grenudi UT, on the best-supported and highest-performing devices, offers a level of functionality that isn't available in the competing projects you mention (for which I have deep respect). For example, the fact that a system works partially on over 700 devices is of no interest to the average UT user whose device runs the system fully. As long as UT offers competitive advantages over other systems, it will continue to attract users, developers, and partnerships. Your beliefs about Mir are incorrect, which means your reasoning regarding UT’s architectural “problems” is flawed. Ubuntu Touch has advantages and disadvantages (as other concurrents projects). Your tendency toward an ideal world where all contributions could (or should) be available upstream clashes with a simple reality: many users prefer a non-mainline device that works to a mainline device that doesn’t work fully or is too slow. And that’s why Halium is useful (currently) and why some people support and use UT (or Droidian or FuriOS). Endlessly repeating all the "negative" things you think about certain compromises UT makes or about certain architectural choices that have been inherited and retained for lack of a realistic alternative does not seem to me to be effective in this context.

    Reporting back for future generations, I think I've found the issue. I was retracing my steps and found this: When installing postmarketOS there is a device specific instructionto run "fastboot oem uart enable" command. So I tried to run "fastboot oem uart disable" and then flash UT. So far working like a charm. Did a switch off, did a restart and all works as I'd expect it - also with Libertine set up.

    @developerbayman said: @pparent this is good to know basically 99% of all my stuff is on qt6 i would hate to have to refactor back to qt5 Anyway this is only a question of time before Qt6 gets integrated in the system and become the standard for app development. Now to publish a Qt6 app to the openstore you have to bundle the whole Qt6 library with you're app which might be a bit heavy, be soon this should not be a problem anymore.

    Hello I'm pleased to announce I've published muttum for Lomiri today: https://next.open-store.io/app/org.muttum.muttum-lomi/ The player has 6 attempts to retrieve a word from a dictionary. Currently the game contains 3 dictionaries: english, german and french. If you know a dictionary for your language I can add it in next versions. The requirement is to have a plain text file with one word by line. Some notes: About the NSFW tag: the end game screen contains a link to the Wiktionary page of the solution. As I do not filter/censor list of playable words, this link can target a page with violent content or explicit image. muttum is also available for the GNOME desktop (I made it last year) and it shares the same game engine and translations. The Lomiri version has the advantage to be responsive as the Ubuntu Touch toolkit is made for easy convergence. For the application id, I built it with the reversed DNS of the project website (muttum.org). As I already used the "org.muttum.muttum" id for the GNOME version, I wanted to use "org.muttum.muttum-lomiri", so you can install both version. As the Open Store disallows application ids to contain words "lomiri" and "ubports", I shortened the id with "org.muttum.muttum-lomi".

    That page probably is not for what you expect. It is not really a membership registration page. You become a member of the community simply by interacting and participating. I think the page's purpose was to generate a list for a pool of volunteers and their skills in order to match them with project needs. But may I ask what you registered for? Maybe you can be pointed in the right direction to contribute by someone here.
