[pparent]

I've released V8.15.0-1 with the following changes:

-Fix keyboard closing after sending a message
-Bump to Signal-Desktop 8.15.0-1 (First to officially support arm64)

Edit: never mind, it seems to have settled now. This might have been due to openstore updating the app.

Behold! A crash on startup:

Currently, it seems not.

I see that they have added Signal UT to this page!

https://ubports.com/apps

Which is nice! But the link "Check out on Openstore" points to Cinny? Any way to report it? Maybe @moem ?

@pparent The keyboard now works in 2.x for Signal UT!!!

@Ida_

That's great news!!

I've been informed that I should rebrand "Signal UT" for Trademark concerns.

I propose "Sigma UT". What do you think?

( Also I will give informations on how to rebrand the app to Signal once installed, for those who want to do that on their own and for their own device, for aesthetic reasons only, and knowing that this is not and official Signal app provided by Signal Technology Foundation, as already mentioned in the description of the app. )

Thank you!

@pparent The word sigma has some not very neutral meanings tied to it these days, as in alpha, beta and sigma males. I would not go for this name, unless you want the app to be associated with the manosphere.

Maybe you could pick a nice animal or plant you like, that starts with an S? Seal, seagull, satsuma, strawberry?
