        Greetings from The Netherlands,
        My name is Jan and I like the idea to have fun with a Linux based mobile OS. Certainly with the current developments in the (tech) world. A couple of months ago I started actively to de-google. When I reduced the amount of apps the switch to another android 'taste' would be easier. I bought a Nothing CMF 1 and installed e/os. I host my own nextcloud instance, and this combination works like a charm. I already work with linux boxes for a long time. When I read more about UbuntuTouch and PostmarketOS, I liked the idea to buy an FairPhone4, and do the 'next step' šŸ™‚
        Cheers, Jan

          @MrRoughwood Greetings, Jan. šŸ¤

          How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

              Hello everyone,

              My name is Gabriel. After reading about the new Android developments, I decided that only Linux on mobile devices will have a future. I have been using Linux for about six years and am also a member of a Linux User Group. At the moment, I am happily using a Lenovo Tab M10 X306F with Ubuntu Touch.

              Kind regards from Germany

              Gabriel

                    Hey everyone,

                    I'm a senior software engineer who's recently gone down the privacy and self-hosting rabbit hole šŸ˜…

                    That naturally led me to exploring mobile OS alternatives, and Ubuntu Touch's focus on privacy and convergence really resonates with me. I'm excited to contribute where I can be most useful - just need to get oriented on where the team needs help most.

                    Looking forward to being part of the community!

                              Hello forum,
                              my name is Charly. I come from Germany and have been using Linux on my PC for 30 years and on my cell phone for about 3 years.

                              Thank you everyone for the great work. I love my UT Volla X23 and use it as a daily driver.

                              I am pleased that the waiting time is for 24.04 is over and I hope that there are now resources for bug fixes and further developments.

                              If I had only one wish, I would want Bluetooth support for Waydroid.

                              Thank you & best regards
                              Charly

                              Greetings
                              Charly

                              UT 24.04 on Volla X23
