futify - Despite all the hate, I love it
dekko - same as above

List of Human Beings:

I could list all the hard workers where one of them will definitely win (Marius, Alfred, Ratchanan, Sunweaver, Jami, NotKit, Danfro, Capsia,..)
but I will be biased and mention those who personally wasted a lot of time with me on chat (unfortunately I will leave out people like all wilfridd, x.Dub, jmlich,..)

lduboeuf - for all the time he spent with me debugging bugs in the SMS and Calendar apps

Vlad Nirki - for the time spent debugging at the beginning of the year, to make VoLTE work on miatoll

Team Gold to everyone involved in the transition to a fluid Noble. It is partly transparent but you should know that the number of problems to fix in all directions and requests to validate is immeasurable !

@johndoe
Nice write up!!
I will only take the first two nominations, just to be fair (and not create too many options).

But thank you for the enthusiasm!

RJDan

@johndoe
about the webpage and graphics; That would be greatly appreciated.
I will try to find out how one gets a page added to the UBports website.

RJDan

My nominations.

Community favourite app:

Sapot
Sapot has become my go-to browser for everything. It does not feel like a compromise and the gesture controls are both creative and intuitive.
Keeweb
It works. That is already fantastic. It works very well and has given me no problems at all for the months that I have used it. Password managers are an essential tool for UT and this app made my life a tonne easier.

Community favourite developer

Kugi Eusebio
I use several of Kugi's apps. They have a coherent feel to them which is really nice to see and they have made my UT experience functional.

@RJDan Yes, Indeed!
And let's not forget those developers who work behind the scenes every day for Ubuntu Touch, notably TheKit, Marius, Mike Gabriel and Maciek, in addition to those mentioned above.

I would also like to mention Moem for her energy and enthusiasm in flying the flag for UBports at every Open Source event in the Netherlands and beyond. App-Lee, who hosts most of the Q&As and has been instrumental in establishing partnerships with our friends at Volla and Brax (right?)

Also all the members of the foundation's board of trustees, without whom UBports would not exist.
And so many others that I am forgetting or simply do not know, whether they are application developers or part of the porting team...

Hats off to you all!

I'm nominating Podcat and RockWork! These two apps contribute hugely to my enjoyment of UT.

Which means of course that I nominate the devs Joan CiberSheep for their wonderful work on bringing the fun back to podcasts in UT, and Muhammad for his tireless and creative ways of bringing Pebble compatibility to UT. And for all of his bluetooth magic!

danfro

For developers:

Ratchanan, because so much code for the OS wouldn't exist without him
Lionel for his work on calendar app, dialer and messages

For apps:

Teleports, what would we do without it?
OpenStore, again we would be nothing witout it
