@t12392n said in Potentially turning a negative of Google's tightening restrictions into a positave: smartphone has become an extension of you as a person This sure sounds like a frightening statement. I'm glad I don't feel that way.

@mihael It is probably for the other features of the app. But you could also open the python script with a texteditor before running it. So you can see what it actually does and do not have to blidly trust it. Personally, I connect my phone with an USB cable to the PC, if I want to exchange files. But than you access your phone with your PC.

@bestenaizena Have you tried 'settings', 'Security & Privacy' -> 'Locking and Unlocking' -> 'Lock security' -> 'Change passcode'?

I've succeeded in making a .click package, here is the topic for the app development: https://forums.ubports.com/topic/11532/signal-ut-signal-desktop-for-ubuntu-touch

Hi @CiberSheep. Ok. I posted to those places already over a week ago but nothing has been done. https://gitlab.com/alaskalinuxuser/trolly/-/issues https://gitlab.com/alaskalinuxuser/MyFinance/-/issues

@grenudi Well, some quick items about this: Lomiri (aka Unity8) has 15 years of development (>) Unity is developed by a professional and capable team of designer and UX experts. I don't know why random people get the idea that the desktop is designed to be «just different from X». Lomiri has its own language and design. Object of which are simple, intuitive and beatifull. Ubuntu Touch is not Android. Ubuntu users are used to Unity patterns. So, have them in Ubuntu Touch makes sense to us. (offtopic) Andoird UI is a mess, but the more time passes, the more it adopts Unity design language.

@bamboy360 thanks for the feedback. 1- This is how Unity works. There is a difference from the Launcher that from the App drawer. 2- It has been some discussion on how to simplify all the indicators... 3- Inverted portrait should work as default but some porters blocked that feature.

@O.o. said in Installing Ubuntu Touch from a non-Android OS (specifically Sailfish): I'll shoot a picture of the shelf and ask her to choose what she wants... That sort of thing. Matrix just can't do that. That's odd. It does that for me. The only difference to the other person (in this case, your wife) is that they'll need to download the picture in order to see it. But I can take it and send it from right inside Cinny just fine.

@grenudi Because Ubuntu Touch is Lomiri. Without Lomiri, Ubuntu Touch loses its identity and loses its purpose. When the community/foundation picked up the project, it picked up the whole Ubuntu Touch project and continued its goal. In an ideal world, we all want the same things but in reality we want different things and that's the reason we have so many DEs and distros. One of the main goal of Ubuntu Touch and Lomiri is convergence. I know other distros also kind of touches that concept too but it's pretty obvious that UT's direction is very much different. Most of us UT users obviously like Lomiri and that's why we continue to support it and contribute to it.

@grenudi We've been more than tolerant when you came in swearing and calling us names... when you don't even use Ubuntu Touch anymore. Please don't push your luck. If you go on like this, you will wear out your welcome fast. Please consider this an official warning.

That is not a supported device, as far as I know. This means that there is no version of Ubuntu Touch for it. What exactly were you planning to install?
