        @carbonated Welcome, Camden. 🤝

        How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

          I am a software developer, using mosty Javascript and Java in my current job, but have done some Scala, D, a little C++/Qt 4 and a bit of QML. I'm not sure if I will have enough time to help in OS' or core apps' development, but I will definitely throw in some testing, my feedback and ideas to discuss. And maybe someday I'll manage to start helping with the code as well.

                  Just been given a Nexus 5 with UT preinstalled. I love it so far. Looks very simple to write apps for. I have a pwa i'd like to port to UT, so I'll be setting to work on that. I have Mint on my laptop. Also have access to a Oneplus to test out focal packages.

                        I switched to UT in mid-2019 and have been very pleased with it. 🙂

                              Hi to all!
                              I've used UT for the first time on 2016 with the E4.5.
                              Used the s10 port in 2022 and now the pixel 3a. Not continuos usage

                                  Hi all, I got involved with UT from about a month and I love the project. I am electronics engineer and I am interested in helping as much as I can with development of UT , because I support the projects idea and vision.

                                  I am currently maintaining focal port for miatoll devices, but I wish to get more into system development and plan to do another port too.

                                  Thank you all who are working and supporting UT and making it real.
