Proposal for 14 February.
-
Hi, this is a draft for 14 February (which can be repeated every year). I think it could be published on the blog, Telegram channel, forum, social networks...
Show your love for UBports/UT/Yumi/Lomiri.
- Consider testing OTA-23
- Review your installed apps and consider making a donation or a nice review.
- Write an article on your UBports blog/blog or something nice on your social media about UBports/UT/Lomiri or an app.
- Make a video and share it on a platform.
- Go to the UBports shop or donation page.
- Put a nice picture of Yumi/UBports/Ubuntu Touch on your profile on Telegram, Mastodon, Matrix...
- Share this post and if you can translate it into your language.
- Stick a Yumi/Ubports/Ubuntu Touch sticker on your laptop, car...
Consider starting to contribute to UBports on a non-sporadic basis:
- With app, documentation and system translations.
- Helping on the forum, Telegram, Matrix...
- Creating or improving documentation.
- Porting, helping to porting or helping to maintain a device.
- Sorting Gitlab issues.
- Contributing code to applications or the system.
- Creating an application.
- Submitting bug reports.
- Contributing design ideas in the system or on your web pages.
- Volunteering if you are a sysadmin, designer or anything else that might be useful.
- Consider giving a talk about UBports/UT.
- Buying hardware with UT pre-installed.
- With system or application testing.
- Consider making a monthly donation to UBports or to an application/UT developer.
Surely there are more ways to show our love for UBports/UT/Yumi/Lomiri, such as adding a new way to this draft.
P.S. My language is not English, so this is not written in stone.

I'm glad about this initiative, it's something that we Ut users can contribute, thanks...

For this year it is already published, let's see if we can improve the text for next year.

@bolly : I have a remark about the poll. I voted for campaign 1, as this one is the most effective. But if I'm honest, I think all 4 could be better. For campaign 1, I think the text for the third image could be improved by changing 'but doesn't overdo it' (which is a bit vague) to a more clearer message like 'but doesn't steal your data' (photo with someone running away with a pile of paperwork) or 'but doesn't spy on you' (photo with someone watching through hole in newspaper like cartoon spy?) or something like that. But maybe there already has been debate about this, and words were chosen this way deliberately?

Hello @Alter , I have nothing to do with that campaign, I suggest you open another thread and they will surely see it.
Anyway, from what I read, these sentences were taken from a much longer text by Dalton. I guess it's a tribute to him and that's why they have to be like that.
You can read it here.

@bolly : Sorry, I thought you were involved with that. Missed the part about it being tribute to Dalton, which was in the original blog post, thanks for the link! Of course, Dalton deserves a tribute for all he has done for Ubuntu Touch, and I have huge respect for him, and I'm sure he is better with words than me. I will therefore not open a new thread. The community will choose a campaign. I hope it will be a great success!

That kind of ruins it for me, because the whole idea of that concept is that you see the same person in every picture.
