      I may already asked you that before, but did you consider making a Jerk app for Openstore ?

        @developerbayman You are clearly very keen on inproving UT, so why not join the developer team which is crying out for qualified members to contribute to the system. You would then get a clearer idea of the principles on which Ubuntu Touch is built, and some of the constraints imposed by those principles.

          @keneda I think it's doing too much to the system that I don't want it to be available just to anyone. Although it's generally safe, because I use and test it on my main phone 😄, it can still break your system.
          But if anyone wants to create, I won't stop them. I'm also not sure though if it can even be approved in the store.

            @cliffcoggin very true actually im currently trying to understand things like click and how to build halium

            but i cant lie my IQ is only so high also iv run into alot of road blocks

            i am however not deterred however in my eyes i feel like to truly join the dev team i need not ask so much as to begin to create
            .....UT is out of my current skill set but im learning

            ....i also have taken a shine to python in the last couple of weeks and have been having alot of fun also

            i have almost finished a new android app for use in waydroid to access UBports forum fixing some things like copy paste,file upload,

            also im waiting to get my server back up because we are clustering i was going to implement a UBports zoom conference system into the app
            then i was going to release it on here

            .....also thinking about hosting a UBports excluseive to waydroid app store ......idk bout the last one id prob take a vote i feel f-droid,apkpure ect feel a little spammy to me

            so iv chosen to adopt this community so i would like to see us have nice things

                  @developerbayman OTA updates are delta-based, so if they break your system is then hit-or-miss, if UT changed something that you also changed with apt or by editing it manually it will get overwritten/erased by an OTA delta eventually. But if that happens simply switch channels back or forth, or reinstall with the instsaller to get a full wipe, and you are back in business.

                  Its really not easy to break a UT install, in contrast to a desktop PC. And thats the beauty of all those restrictions, they keep you afloat as long as possible.
