    • Snaps tested

      I thought it might be useful to have a list of snaps that run well on UT.
      I will slowly populate this list as I try things.

    • RE: Ubuntu Touch Q&A 172 Call for Questions

      Could you add a segment to the 'show' where you give an example of how to get things done on UT?

      I think many people need to figure out ways to work in UT since it is quite different from android but many of these ideas don't make their way to the 'general UT public'.

      For example, there was a discussion about getting uwolf or firefox to sync passwords. This is a great alternative to the non-functioning password manager apps and makes life a lot easier.
      Or maybe demo how to use ghostcloud.

      I think these 'FYI' segments can help ease the transition for many people.

    • tiling windows on lomiri

      Hi
      Quick question, are there any tiling window manager-like features to lomiri?
      I use sway and miraclewm and I have got very comfortable with this setup. I get that lomiri (and UT more specifically) is designed for a different use case but I was curious if it would even be possible to add this in myself for using a UT device as a computer when docked.

    • zfs on Ubuntu touch

      Hello

      I have an external harddrive that I use for as a portable 'home partition'. Its formatted with zfs and I have been using to to effortlessly move between using different computers (laptop, desktop, work) and have all my files all the time.
      If I wanted to use it with an Ubuntu touch device, I would need to have a functioning zfs installation on the device. I heard in one of the podcasts that installing things via apt is not supported and the root partition only has 3GB of space.

      Is it feasible/possible to install zfs on UT? I guess a snap installation of zfs is very unlikely.

    • App for bug reports?

      Hello
      I might have missed it. Is there an app for 'automatically' populating gitlab/github bug reporting?
      For me at least, I would be more inclined report bugs if it were easier.
      It would help you guys too because you could get the app to send logs etc that are necessary for examining the problem.
