  Thanks for the pick-me-up, @Flohack. Perhaps there will be some more, positive attention once the Pine Phone version of UT is working well.

  @domubpkm The mobile version has some options out (or hidden), so that's right, you can switch to desktop view for the ones you miss

  @Stefano I agree: fragmentation of the marketplace ought to be good for UT: an imperative being that we need to get it on hardware at point of sale. (I have been half expecting an announcement from Micro$oft too, suggesting they might have another go.)

  Since you have an unlocked bootloader, it's generally as simple as downloading the latest LineageOS and the lastest TWRP, flashing TWRP with fastboot, then using TWRP to wipe the system and sideload LineageOS with ADB. The whole process is explained here: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/mako/install Installing Google services and Play Store are extra steps that are covered in the LineageOS documentation. If you want to run without Google services but do want mainstream apps to work, you might consider installing the LineageOS builds from MicroG instead of the official ones: https://lineage.microg.org/ MicroG spoofs the existence and some of the function of Google services to apps that require them. But not every app works smoothly with MicroG, so it depends on your willingness to live with bugs vs. deal with more tracking using Google Services. If you do install the MicroG version, it will have the Fdroid store built in. From Fdroid, you can install Yalp Store or Aurora store to download apps anonymously from Google Play Store, or they call allow you to sign in to download your paid apps. If you only want to use open source software and do not need or want Google services or any imitation of it, then you can simply install the official LineageOS version, download Fdroid, and get your open source software from there without ever using MicroG or flashing Google Apps.

  I am just answering to the anti-virus question: So far there is no official scan software that will manage to scan click apps for example. The one in the store was a fake, it was literally doing nothing except showing a GUI with "you are at risk" or so. Do not use it. The biggest issue was that it was running under full confinement, so it had not even the rights to scan everything besides itself. I dont really know what´s the current situation with viruses in Linux/Ubuntu. Are there proven Anti-Virus/rootkit/Malware scanners that really make sense? Never used one in Linux tbh...
