I was born at a very young age. Then all kinds of stuff happened. Long story short: I'm now running UT on a OnePlus One, as a daily driver.
Hello! Trying again... maybe a shorter post will work. I've been reading through people's introductions, and interesting stuff like the meet-the-community page, and it might be time to introduce myself here.
I'm Moem, or at least that's how a lot of folks know me. The name came from one of my favourite books. I'm active in the Dutch hackerspaces community and on the Linux Mint forum where I'm a moderator. I'm Dutch.
The Star of Life symbol is usually used in blue. I think that is a good reason to make it blue here, too. But on a black background, it would be good to have a white outline because that has maximal contrast with black.
So, this is my proposal.

Does Ubuntu Touch make your photos better or worse?
Does not having a working zoom or flash make your photos better or worse? I bet you can guess...
(I can't read the article, it gives me a 404.)
@commisde That's good stuff! An English translation would be quite helpful. I might even be inclined to help with a translation into Dutch...
@cliffcoggin said in DistroWatch Poll: Do you own a Linux-powered phone? - UBports is a choice.:
Why?
To show the world that we exist.
@Flohack Ooh, that's exciting! Thanks for the update!
@Keneda said in Anbindung der Konten geht nicht (The accounts cannot be linked):
Beside, isn't dutch a german langage?
No, it's not, it's a Germanic language.
It surprises me that a speaker of French (I assume) cannot see the difference between Dutch and German! I would have thought it was easy.
We should probably stop this off-topic conversation... so for now, salut et à la prochaine.
@Keneda said in Anbindung der Konten geht nicht (The accounts cannot be linked):
Sorry but i don't understand Dutch.
Deutsch is not Dutch, Deutsch is German. I should know, because I'm Dutch. 
carrabelloy has been seen using an online translator before, so that's not the problem here. They're just being childish.
It sounds to me like that's what Libremax was talking about. An existing store, so that is a separate entity from the UBports foundation.

Continued:
I installed Linux Mint five years ago and things went downhill from there 
My first smartphone was an already outdated Blackphone and I enjoyed the option to use as few Google-linked apps as possible. Then a Oneplus One was dropped into my lap, taking things even further down that path. LineageOS is pretty neat. Recently I heard that Ubuntu Touch runs on that phone too! So I got myself a cheap used one with a broken screen glass, and here I am. New glass is in the mail, UT is installed and I like it. Once the phone has been repaired I'll put my SIM in it and see how I like it in actual practice as a daily driver.
I'm not at all a developer but I do enjoy tinkering and UT feels like a community of tinkerers. It feels lively and fresh and I'm happy to be here.
@Lakotaubp Working now, thank you!
@luby said in Touch wont install:
I am using Linux Mint which i believe should work with
Ubports. Is that correct?
That's correct. I can't help you further because I don't have a Nexus, but Linux Mint should not be the problem here.
Someone may be able to help you if you can explain exactly what happened, and at what point it failed, and what that failure looked like.
From what I've heard, it's pretty hard to brick any device using UBports even if it may seem like that's what happened. Don't despair just yet.
@makeixo said in Ubuntu Touch Photography:
I think that can be fixed.
I'm assuming it will be fixed in a future update. For now, however, it's suboptimal.

@CiberSheep
Thank you. I guess I've either decided to take it later (and then never done it, because apparently there is no way) or done so and forgotten.
@CiberSheep said in Why no global BACK button/swipe motion?:
welcome tutorial that show the basic OS use
Huh! Interesting. Where would one find that?
@UdenGoogle said in OnePlus One, notes say camera zoom won't work:
we will get at some point a good camera in OPO or not?
Most likely, we will. And we will probably get it in normal updates, when it's ready.
@Flohack said in OnePlus One, notes say camera zoom won't work:
I am working at the same time on all devices somehow xD
Do you maybe look like this? 
@stanwood Thank you, that was super helpful! 
@Flohack said in OnePlus One, notes say camera zoom won't work:
we will port OPO to Halium 7.1
I keep seeing that and I'm afraid that I don't have any clue what it means for me as a user. Will we get a new version? What is the difference? Will we need to reinstall?
