It cannot be the "best way" when you cannot actually open the OSK. It is for example impossible to select and copy text off a web page (as is the OP's issue) to paste in another app. Recently I had no choice but to retype a block of text manually, it is quite tedious.

@poVoq said in I can't connect to mastodon any longer (uMastonauts):

By the way, if anyone wants to work on an offline and multi account client for Mastodon, Pinaforce would be a really good base: https://pinafore.social/

Thanks for the suggestion! I just tried it with my account, it seems quite fast, and the scrollbar on the right side is wide enough to actually be able to use it! (so far I'd found nearly no usable scrollbars on UT because they were all so thin they're impossible to grab)

I might make a webapp of it for myself with Webber.

In my opinion this is a UT limitation. Any content where you're trying to select text (web page in Morph browser, or any web app) will behave that way. It's only within the on-screen keyboard that you can select whatever string of text you want. It's been like this for me since I started using UT 4 months ago.

No issue either. I'm on the RC channel (if that matters), and in uMastonauts I use the fosstodon.org instance.

@PINE64 said in PinePhone:

Answering the question regarding pace of PinePhone BH sales. There are two ways to look at it - a positive way and a less positive way.

The BH edition took a little more time to sell than I initially thought, but hey, it did get sold out, right? So I think this is really good news, and encouraging for the next phase. The more so if you guys manage to have the
attachable keyboard ready by then. I'm sure it's going to be a huge inticement!

Fact is, I had the PinePhone product page opened up in a tab of my phone's browser for a few days, when I finally decided to take the plunge it was too late (I wouldn't have hesitated if the keyboard had been available as well!)

What has me most concerned is not the hardware, but the software. As far as I understand it, UT is the FOSS OS the most ready, and already in use (it's been my daily driver for the past 3-4 months). But it's riddled with annoyances and missing important stuff that means one must really, really be dedicated to use it. Not unlike the state of desktop Linux 12 years ago. I fear it may deter a lot of potential buyers once the final PinePhone is released.

Odd, I use Keepit without issue, it opens kdbx files.
My only wish is that it would allow creating new entries. I have to create them on my desktop, then upload the updated file to my phone.

I tried Keepweb but couldn't make it work.

I have no idea what straighttalk is.

@WLBI said in Is there any way to get mobile data internet off?:

@sorath72 Just curious, are there really plan nowadays, which has that expensive data included? Actually even the cheapest plan has nowadays unlimited data included.

That may be true in your country, but please do not assume it is the same in all other countries.

In Canada we are getting ripped off by phone companies (ISP's as well). Unlimited data is only available with expensive plans.

Actually I just had a quick look at two providers, neither offers unlimited data, the most is up to 12GB a month for $85 CAD (59€). In any case, many of us absolutely do not want to spend as much money on mobile service.

As suggested in the comments of the bug report linked by @Flohack, have you tried a long swipe from right to left to bring up the list of opened apps?

I occasionally have the camera freeze on my OPO (on rc channel), doing a long swipe left then selecting the camera app again usually unfreezes the camera for me.

On my OPO the battery indicator almost always gets stuck at 50% after a reboot. In such cases I often need to reboot multiple times in a row before the battery indicator returns to normal. I've had charging issue only once, soon after I got my OPO from eBay. The vendor had supposedly recently replaced the battery - there is some damage on the edges of the casing, indicating it has been forced open, so I assume he did change the battery. There's a bulge at the back of the phone which seems to indicate overheating.

I can't wait to get a new device to put UT on it (waiting for the Pinephone).
