      And it seems like that when keyboard closes, the text entry still stays halfway up the screen. But that bug was preexisting.

      Yes because for now I cannot detect when the keyboard is really open or not.

      The keyboard closing after every message is new.

      Ok I guess it might be a change upstream in Signal-Desktop that provoked it. Thank's for reporting I'll see what I can do about it in next revision.

          Sorry for hijacking this thread. But your apps run on Xwayland too, right? I wanted to ask how you manage to get rid of that annoying XWindow? If you could show me how to do that for my pEFL app (see https://forums.ubports.com/topic/9958/custom-builder-for-a-library/10?_=1780999049215), I’d really appreciate it!!!

          By the way, great work. If it weren’t for the keyboard issue, Min b

            Sorry but I'm not sure to understand your message, what you want to achieve, or what keyboard issue you are talking about.

            Can you explain more?

              with my pEFL App, two windows open: one named "pefl" (my app) and one named "X11 Support."

              In Min Browser (which also runs via Xwayland, right?), there's only one window. So somehow you managed to get rid of the "X11 Support" window.

              In Min Browser, the input from the Maliit Keyboard is sometimes overwritten (for example, I want to open www.google.de, but at some point it turns into www.googlegoogle.de). I think it is this problem: https://github.com/minbrowser/min/issues/2705

                Strange maybe you can post a screenshot, on your topic and mention me, I will reply there!

                Yes I plan to work on fixing that soon! πŸ˜‰

                    It seems Signal-Desktop will support linux-arm64 officially in upcoming releases!

                    https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/commit/8e1728ff634734a5e30fd314ab4c246434f0aa2e

                    Which is a nice to have! (That does not exclude the need to patch the code for use on UT )

                      Sorry for the aside, but what is the status for using Signal from a desktop app (without having a phone number) ?

                        Well I guess it will probably be a reality one day, but for now we have to be patient, as no official release has been made about if and when a standalone desktop version (Without needing Android or iOS) will be available.

                        Also from my understanding it would not be without needing a phone number. I think you will still need to receive a code by SMS. Just that you won't need to install Signal on an Android/iOS smartphone, and you will be able to directly make the installation process (that requires SMS authentication) on your desktop (or in this case on you Ubuntu Touch).

                          If anyone can report the current status of the app on 24.04-2.x, it would help, as I currently don't have a testing device compatible with it!
