        Under F-Droid there is significantly more as under UbPorts..I think that should be maä reconsidered.

        It's not a matter of reconsidering.
        UT doesn't natively run .apk apps. There are a lot of those around, so it's not strange that F-droid offers a lot of them... simply because there are a lot of people who use them, and so, also a lot of people who make them.
        The number of people who make apps for UT is simply a whole lot smaller.

          @carrabelloy If you are looking to install Android apps (which is what you get from F-Droid, then try Waydroid.

          Libertine is for installing traditional Linux Applications', which in this case means applications packaged as Debs in the Ubuntu Repository of the particular version of the OS. But be advised that not all applications play well with the X11 server Ubuntu Touch provides (XMir on xenial and XWayland on Focal).

            @moem This is perfectly clear to me and should not be a negative portrayal. But to achieve a hearing acceptance, it is better to bundle.so that Ubports gets a better spread. When I tell others why you do not use a Linux phone or I can not get them on it, is mostly the apps. I think the group Postmarketos goes here probably a different way. I also use a lot of things on open-souce myself and use Fediverse a lot. But unfortunately these occur just as little on UBports. That inhibits the whole system. As it is to be evaluated with Linux computers just the same. Although everyone makes a lot of effort. That must be changed finally times. On the one hand, it could bring more programmers to this system, who could bring their inovation to it from app building to basic system. This should all be reconsidered. With wayland, I myself have not yet got behind it. Since I can hardly English and must me everything überstzen in both directions. Thank you for your answer.

              That is an opinion that you are allowed to have. :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

                @David-F Did you ever get Signal to install through Libertine? How did that go?
