    • RE: Contact tracing on ubports (covid-19)

      And I guess privacy and freedom activists especially in the field of mobilephones, might have interest in being proactive and proposing solutions at the edge of privacy protection, rather than letting others propose solutions that are not so good for privacy.

      If others want to do it, I'm willing to participate in developing such an app.

    • How much of non-free software is there in UBports images?

      Hi,

      I'm wondering how much of non-free software is there in UBports?

      I guess that there must be at least non-free firmware blob in the kernel, as only few distributions remove them ( e.g Debian, Trisquel, Pureos ). Are there also non-free drivers in the kernel for some devices? Are there other non-free software unrelated to the kernel installed by default?

      I think it would be most interesting to have a most precise view on this question, since the free and open-source software argument is the main advantage of UBports against Android.

      Also note that Replicant maintans a list of "Freedom and privacy/security issues" for each of its targeted devices. None of them is completly free of issues.

      Thank's in advance for your reply!
      PIerre.

    • RE: Not enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives

      @pparent This is not a good idea to do.

      No disrespect, but I think this is why I will choose pureOS in the long run, whenever I receive the phone and it is usable.

      As users I want to be able to do the same things we can do on our computer, and be in control of our device, without being artificially limited, and not being sandboxed into a container. Otherwise I would use Android!
