@AppLee I get all that and I am aware.
I am on board as a user since UT started. I always had patience and understanding and supported people if possible.
For the following I want tosay first, that I have no insights and mught not be aware of certain things.
I refer to as what UBorts presents itself on the web. An alternative OS for anybody.
I am sure I am not the only one who read stories of people trying UT for some time and then switching back to their former OS since they were disappointed.
Mostly this is, because they simply have no clue of what they hold in their hands.
But the people I know using Android or IOS I couldn't convince even one to switch to UT though for me it's the best.
On the device site I read "Runs very smoothly without any flaws. The experience on this device will be comparable to other mobile OSes on the market."
That's simply not true for an average user which UBPorts want to reach. Or amI getting this wrong?
Also my impression is, that the focus of developers often is on things important to them, not the community. There are often things in Q&As I thought about "nice" but doesn't bring the user experience for the average user forward, since he doesn't even get in touch with it.
I hope you get my point.
So maybe UBPorts should name it an OS for people who are willing to renounce and wait if something doesn't work.
But that is not a ready OS comparable to others on the market. You can't expect people to jump on the train if the train doesn't roll (browser, mail,...). In my opinion some priorities over the last years were not set right.
Please please don't get me wrong. I just want to clarify this for me and once and for all. I don't want bad blood.
I consider myself as an average user UBPorts want to gather more of.
I also don't have time to read and inform me about everything and other average users may behave similar. Therefore I might have gotten things wrong...?
So I wonder if UT is for me or just for really skilled people.
This not meant to disrespect the work of the developers. The opposite is the case, I wish I was that skilled! It's just about the direction and decisions I know too little about!
I'd love to help. I have basic coding skills, but I simply have no time. So I report experiences as a normal user with needs, developers maybe don't always see. I buy devices of Volla who help developing and donate to UBPorts.
That's what I can do.
I tried e.g. Volla OS and other degoogled OSes. I avoid apps wherever possible and do things in the browser. I don't really like Android. But basic stuff works on all those OSes, even on Mobian or postmarketOS on the Pinephone (which simply lags hardware). I know, one could write books now on why that is so.
My point is: If UT is praised as working OS for average people, then it should be that. In my opinion, it was, but isn't any more though it could.
It should state, what andfor who it really is.
If that disqualifies me as a welcome user, I accept that I am wrong and won't bother anyone here any more...
I really hope, I expressed myself right. I want to stay part of this and I was simply asking for a solution until a new browser is coming.
I am willing to wait but can't get along without a browser. So what am I supposed to do? This is my question...
