Trying out UT on Pixel 3a XL for review article

@theprivacydad I see. There's a couple of things here.
First is that clipboard doesn't work yet on apps running via Wayland/XWayland which uWolf is. So sadly you can't copy paste there.Second, what version is your Nextcloud? I believe mine is NC 30 and it works fine and I can download files.
Lastly, you're most likely using Beta version of Ubuntu Touch 24.04 Noble. That one isn't released yet and most of your issues seem to be because of that. For example, Notes app is still not compiled for Noble hence the blank screen. UBsync might also need to be recompiled to work properly. OpenStore allowed focal (20.04) apps to be installed in noble (24.04) to allow users to use apps that hasn't been rebuilt or adjusted for noble. Many apps will just work but sadly that's not the case for every app.

Hi @theprivacydad Developer of uWolf here.
LibreWolf is focused on privacy and security, By default LibreWolf will delete cookies when closed you can change that in about:settingscopy/paste as mentioned already is one of many symptoms of being forced to use XWayland there is a fix on the way but until it is merged no dice unless you want to install it through the qa tool and remove the XWayland flags from the launch script in uWolf but I would not recommend that.

Oh, wow. You are right. I will have to start over with my notes, most likely, after installing the stable channel.
I have now found this page: https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/about/process/release-schedule.html via the small link in the installer.
I don't know who to report this to, but if the UBPorts installer is designed to lower the barrier for non-tech people, can I suggest putting the stable channel as default in the drop-down menu? Someone new to all of this will read 'daily' and not understand what that is. I read right past it and continued the installation.
Thank you! I'll reinstall today sometime.

@theprivacydad I haven't used the installer lately but I would think the stabl channel is the default and I think the noble channel was still hidden but maybe now it's not?
-
@kugiigi It's no longer hidden, no. And channel sorting has always been an issue with the installer when new channels become available. Now the sorting is probably from newest to oldest as a way to default to noble when it became the default.
-
@arubislander It looks like that, yes, from newest to oldest.
-
@arubislander An easier fix might be a highlighted warning message in that particular window of the installer to newcomers to choose the latest 'stable' version. That way the changing order doesn't matter.
-
@theprivacydad I think defaulting to the current stable version, whichever that might be is the correct way to go about it.
Opening an issue about it on the Installer's issue tracker will keep the info from getting lost.
