@applee it works! thanks

Hello, I could download and install Podbird from repository, everything works smooth. But the problem is, when I paste rss url to "Add new podcast" it just disappear and I am not able to add anything.

Also, additional question, i read on description, that Podbird can help you in podcast search. Does it mean, that after installation, i should have some list of podcast chose for subscription ? If yes, i don't have any list, it complicit empty

@kshanowski ok, great glad to hear it how is your experience ? is everything work ok ?

Hello, question about Oneplus 3t, I have to buy exactly that model : https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/oneplus3t/ . I mean, if i buy a 6gb ram version, will i able to install a UBports ?

next question, is any version of Nexus 6P(i am not sure if there different hardware versions exists like OnePlus 3t) will work fine with UBport ?

@AppLee

1.what phone have, at your opinion, most ready to use UBports, if not Nexus 5, and still easy to buy ?(less bugs, more compatibility)?

2. will i able to install another browser (firefox, vivaldi)?

3. extremely paranoiac question, why should I trust my login and password from telegramm to third-party application? Because it open source? Because if i trust to install UBports, i should trust to use Teleports ?

@AppLee sounds better, than i expect

@AppLee ok,

1. but will I able to use Linux applications only? (without any apk, java, etc.) I mean, what I need is browsing, phone, and sms.

2. can I install any application that work with arm debian Linux, or i have to only applications that on UBports repository ?

@AppLee AOSP is open source Android, but if i uderstand correct still developed by Google. Does it have any tracing tools like gservices ?

@Keneda thanks for link, Android service doesn't mean Google service, correct ?

@Keneda Thanks for help

@rocket2nfinity Great! Super thanks, I am now finally understand the different!

@Keneda ok, that's sound much better

1. Do i understand correct, if someone can hack Android 7, it can get access to my UBport Nexus 5 ? Or because android files is read-only it impossible?
2. If some malware/virus could work on Android 7, it could work theoretically it could work on Ubports ? For example, malware that making backdoor to your microphone? i don't know if it does exist, it just for example

@rocket2nfinity Or it actually Linux, that using Android like a base of drivers for phone? So, basically using Ubports = using desktop Linux that using proprietary drivers from Nvidia? Android 7 for UBports = Nvidia drivers for desktop Linux ?

@rocket2nfinity Will it be correct, if i say : when I am using UBports on Nexus 5 I am actually using an Open-Source Android but i am using linux, to control Android ?

so actually Nexus 5 Ubports it is still Android 7? Does Ubports on Nexus 5 still have same security problems, as Android 7 ?

@AppLee ok,thanks for help

Hi, i am not from IT, linux is more my hobby.
Could you please explain me differents between GSI UBports Linux on Nexus 5, and UBports on PinePhone?
If I understand correct, linux that you can install on PinePhone is using of arm linux core, while GSI for Nexus 5 works on a base of Android.

1.Could you please explain, what does it mean based on Android? Does it mean, that it just modified open-source Android, that launch linux on "virtual machine" ?

2.Will i get updates for UBports on Nexus 5 ?

3.Is using Linux on Nexus 5 will be same secure as using UBports on PinePhone, i mean if UBports for nexus 5 based on android, if i understand correct, it should be less secure, because Android 4 less secure than Android 10.

I like linux because of less tracking and more secure(less malware, more control, ability customising)
