@Chim said in Welcome to the UBports community! Introduce yourself here!:

I thought about Python, can somebody tell me if i can use Python as a Programming language on the UT device?
For Apps or something like that?

@Chim: Yes you can use Python and I think the following blog post may be a good introduction: https://www.peterspython.com/en/blog/developing-ubuntu-touch-apps-with-python-using-pyotherside

Hi, i am playing around with Linux since Debian 2.0 - i even still have the original CD ordered from pearl back than (is this still a thing btw?) I am really more a end user, not a developer at all. So i am on stable channel with my new PinePhone UB-Ports CE. Sadly its currently not yet usable for calling (OTA-12 stable). I am so grateful there is a alternative to Android and Apple devices - the human kind is really in need for this! I hope in future schools and medicine sector will get equipped with Ubuntu Touch devices. It is still to early to seriously promote Pine64 devices for daily productive use, but that`s about to change, right! Thank you again for all your great work - it can not be said often enough. Happy hugs...

@commisde Great to see the community working to help each other but this is not the correct place. If you could keep all phone for sale etc. discussions to the Off Topic section of the Forum and all price discussions to PM that would be great. Thanks.

Hi all, I'm Ron, I live in the boonies of NW Tennessee (and that's by choice). I'm a retired LEO. I like many was a Windows user, then switched to the MacOS, but now I trying to go all Linux OS based. I currently use the latest version of Ubuntu on my ThinkPad and recently received my Pinephone 64. I hope one day to have it as my daily driver, but until some of the things are worked out I'm using my iPhone X.

@Lt-Dillinger Hello and welcome to UBports and Ubuntu Touch. You may find this link of use https://ubports.com/meet-the-community

@NeoTheThird , @Kaizen (new website design)

On a positive critical note, I can't help but noticing that everyone introducing him/her self gets a friendly reply including the URL to 'meet the community'.

May I suggest we have a pinned post on the forum main page dedicated to new forum members' options to contribute to the community efforts?

After reading the pinned posts they should no longer appear as long as the user is logged in/password stored (unless signed in again)

Perhaps Jan (as OP @NeoTheThird) could amend his first post on this thread too?

Hi there. My name is Bob from the Netherlands.
I bought a oneplus one last week and jumped on the train again. I had on my nexus 7 ubuntu touch before. But i was thinking lets check out the state of this great project again. Battery performance is much better than before!! Super nice.
Im a designer, wordpress specialist, and a pretty decent photographer.

I hope to be in use somehow. But as a non programmer i'm limited in developing in the mobile os.

Hi and welcome @Ghostdog

Here you can find some useful info about how to get involved: https://ubports.com/meet-the-community
And it was repeated during the last Q&A, you can also help by testing, reporting bugs, confirming them or doing triage.
So if you're interested in helping this way you can try and contact Dalton through his many contacts.
Check out the video of the last Q&A to get the original request (around 18'40")
