I understand that, and to be clear, this isn't meant as a complaint or even an expression of frustration. In fact, I recently chose to buy a Fairphone 5 specifically because of its longer support horizon and the active development around it.

My question is more about how the UBports Foundation views this challenge in the long term. Are there already discussions about future approaches that could help address the growing complexity of hardware support? Or perhaps ideas within the community that could lead to a more sustainable solution while we preserve a unified experience across different devices?

I'm not so much interested in the current limitations, we all know those exist... but rather in the broader vision. How does the foundation see the path forward when it comes to maintaining convergence and a consistent user experience across all devices.

@sixwheeledbeast
ahh i get what yoy mean, yes
that is possible in ambots settings,

@ChromiumOS-Guy also so fast compared to the other apps. he obviously is doing great work

@RJDan i would say some sort of competition for a new app, and i would gladly donate a few bucks. because its win win, developer gets rewarded, community gets rewarded with new contributions that people have to like to get the reward, means thoughtfull and usefull apps

@Zer0 Pleas keep sharing, i don't want buttons on my home screen, but i am glad you build it...
i know there is a lot of people out there that do want exactly that.

i like Kugi's attempt more to organize the launcher, that works like a charm for me.
That is the beauty of Ubuntu Touch, if you can dream it you can build it.

@pparent interesting concept, i hope it will help you build a healthy income while we enjoy your content

@developerbayman i know it is dangerous to talk in behalf of others, but from my understanding the normal "users" are looking for a easy understandable no techy solution for installing ubuntu touch locally without any knowledge of terminal commands. either a good instructed guide, either a ubports kinda installer that manages to make grandma install ubuntu touch locally during her process of making her Russian salad for the family dinner.

to add, this seems to become more and more relevant due restrictions and rules that are slowly being pushed by our gouverments worldwide.

@CiberSheep Great respect towards you owning your hiccup.

To me, the guy just seemed enthusiastic. You see the same thing with a few others on this forum... a bit of cross-posting here and there, sometimes even on topics that aren't directly related. But he's actually building things, and we're in a position where people who have the ability time and willingness to build something are in short supply.

but mistakes are made, and will be made again.
We are all Human after all
wel except for a few Robots that are working to build UBports 24/7 (meant to say this as with great respect )
