@Dave try to use sapot browser where you can set a custom user agent. Maybe it will work.

lol im turning into a record .....insert prattle here as it applies as well ....

@GermanAizek

AFAIK

IMEI authenticate the hardware to help fight against stolen devices.
The SIM card is what authenticate the user to a network (it's in the name: Subscriber Identity Module).

So even if you would fake your IMEI you wouldn't fake your SIM hence being tracked.
And if a network is not able to identify (and track you) they will not grant you any service...

If one don't want to be tracked, they should avoid cellphones.

I've seen this in some applications. Does the button come back if you go to concertina mode (app spread) and then back to the app?

@GermanAizek Releases are accompagned with a blog post for now, until someone take the issue.
e.g for the last one: https://ubports.com/en/blog/ubports-news-1/post/ubuntu-touch-ota-4-focal-3912

@GermanAizek said in [Nintendo DMCA] My Gitlab account is banned:

Why UBPorts don't have self-hosted git like all open source projects?

Maybe because it requires money and people to maintain such a tool ?
And not all open source project have their own git, that's why tools like sourceforge or gitlab have so much open source project hosted on them.

@mschmids said in How to detect Ubuntu Touch using system variables in shell script?:

e.g. check for a certain directory/file existence, or read/write access.

indeed, I can still check write/read permissions for Ubuntu Touch /image, but this is not ideal. As a developer, I made image not temporary, write persistent.
