@Chim I had a very good experience with the OnePlus, it was practically ready for daily use for me, until I broke the sim card reader with my stupid nano to micro sim adapter tray.

hi, my name is max (commisde) i have a german passport and mostly live in east of germany. BSc food science. i use ubuntu and UT on a nexus 4 (daily driver) since 2 weeks.
i have very little programming experience (turbo pascal in school, script kiddie use of an instagram bot, some terminal stuff in ubuntu, colobot) but like logical thinking and working, so i have the feeling, i can understand the idea of how programs work.
i am a little fed up with how smartphone technology in society is used atm and want to contribute to the potential of it for good.

Hi,
I'm Josh from Australia and I work in product delivery. I'm not much of a coder but I work in agile delivery and am study product delivery.
I've been looking at UT since it was released (I managed to get myself a BQ E5) and have had an array of different phones (I have a mint Nokia N9 and went to the WebOS launch in Shanghai when HP/Palm launched it 'new' phones and tablet back in the day.
I'd love to help out in product development where I can.
Cheers,
Josh -

@Chim said in Welcome to the UBports community! Introduce yourself here!:
I thought about Python, can somebody tell me if i can use Python as a Programming language on the UT device?
For Apps or something like that?@Chim: Yes you can use Python and I think the following blog post may be a good introduction: https://www.peterspython.com/en/blog/developing-ubuntu-touch-apps-with-python-using-pyotherside

Hi, i am playing around with Linux since Debian 2.0 - i even still have the original CD ordered from pearl back than (is this still a thing btw?) I am really more a end user, not a developer at all. So i am on stable channel with my new PinePhone UB-Ports CE. Sadly its currently not yet usable for calling (OTA-12 stable). I am so grateful there is a alternative to Android and Apple devices - the human kind is really in need for this! I hope in future schools and medicine sector will get equipped with Ubuntu Touch devices. It is still to early to seriously promote Pine64 devices for daily productive use, but that`s about to change, right! Thank you again for all your great work - it can not be said often enough. Happy hugs...

@commisde Great to see the community working to help each other but this is not the correct place. If you could keep all phone for sale etc. discussions to the Off Topic section of the Forum and all price discussions to PM that would be great. Thanks.

Hi all, I'm Ron, I live in the boonies of NW Tennessee (and that's by choice). I'm a retired LEO. I like many was a Windows user, then switched to the MacOS, but now I trying to go all Linux OS based. I currently use the latest version of Ubuntu on my ThinkPad and recently received my Pinephone 64. I hope one day to have it as my daily driver, but until some of the things are worked out I'm using my iPhone X.

@Lt-Dillinger Hello and welcome to UBports and Ubuntu Touch. You may find this link of use https://ubports.com/meet-the-community

@NeoTheThird , @Kaizen (new website design)
On a positive critical note, I can't help but noticing that everyone introducing him/her self gets a friendly reply including the URL to 'meet the community'.
May I suggest we have a pinned post on the forum main page dedicated to new forum members' options to contribute to the community efforts?
After reading the pinned posts they should no longer appear as long as the user is logged in/password stored (unless signed in again)
Perhaps Jan (as OP @NeoTheThird) could amend his first post on this thread too?
