@pparent said in Signal UT: Signal-Desktop for Ubuntu Touch:

I can't do everything at once.

The app is progressing at a very nice pace, as a user I cannot possibly complain. Your effort is appreciated!

@pparent said in Crazy stuff: sudo snap install signal-desktop:

@Moem
Look a the interface it's very far from being responsive or usable on a phone screen, it's very much designed for desktop

I will take you at your word. I just noticed it because of the recent question, that came up on Telegram.

@pparent Just recently someone asked whether it's possible to edit Open Streetmap maps on UT...

How about this? https://snapcraft.io/josm

@Talkless There is a way to mark your topic as solved. There are two steps:

• Find the cog wheel that opens the topic tools and click on Ask as a question.
• Click the cog wheel again and this time, choose Mark as solved.

You can also edit the title, but it's not needed.

@edisss No one knows! There is no list, it depends on whether someone owns the device and the skills, and steps forward to do the work.

@ufoddos said in Recommendations for Ubuntu Touch:

unified communication

Sorry, what does that mean? I'm not familiar with that term.

@linhmieu Here is the Port Development Guide. Read through that first, and ask specific questions as they come up.

Testing now... Works fine

@Sander That's a decent workaround! And no worries, I'm happy to wait.

@Sander Looks very nice and clean! I assume login is coming in a future version?

@ufoddos said in New mobile system solution to replace Android:

Establish a unified national alliance

National? Which nation are you thinking of?
Anyway, sounds like you have given yourself quite a job to do. Good luck and let us know how it goes!

@ancientsounds said in Potentially turning a negative of Google's tightening restrictions into a positave:

I don't feel any problem in not being able to run banking apps on my phone

Neither do I. I do my banking at home, on my laptop.
But then I use a bank that still allows customers to not use the app! Those are getting scarce here.

@fake-alex So what's the plan... are you offering to send these devices to people who want to try to make a port for them? Developers need to have the device in hands.

@Alain Well, there is a description in a pinned topic. But t seems few people read it.

@Alain said in Where is the Desktop?:

Maybe I should try, then

I love your attitude!

@Keneda Interestingly, I'd say this is one of the first times I've seen something posted to New Contributors that was actually suited for that category... Alain is new, and wants to learn about contributing to UT's app ecosystem. Isn't that what New Contributors is for?

@pparent Amazing improvements, thank you very much!

@gpatel-fr said in Status of the Location Service (GPS, A-GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo) ?:

TLDR: backdoor is too strong a word, but there are privacies issues.

Well, then I was only mistaken about Google being the culprit here. Thank you.

@Vlad-Nirky No evidence, and it may be a misunderstanding on my end. As for what you posted, I don't know what any of that means.
