No

No, I'm here because I use Ubuntu on as my primary OS on my personal and business computers and I am interested in the privacy aspects of a Linux phone. I am trying to decide which phone to get , I have a Nexus 5x bullhead but it is not supported. As a matter of fact I have several phones and none are supported. I am leaning toward a Pixel 3a XL, suggestions?

Re: Email application

I have tried Nexus 5 (ran into well known wifi issues), Pine64 (cannot be updated by Ubports) and OnePlus 1.

My current favorite is the OnePlus 1. The only issues I am having that prevent using as a daily driver are:

1. power consumption is still very high requiring charging more than once a day (under light use).

2. Dekko 2 bug in it's 'Spam' folder where it does not show recent items.

Your comments encourage me to try my mail provider's (Fastmail) webmail.

Update: Fastmail's webmail crashes the Morph browser a few seconds after launch. My issues with Dekko 2 are preventing me from using UBP as a daily driver.

Hi @dobey,

I am only trying to message people inside the Signal network.

There is no place (that I can find) to type the number of a Signal contact.

I have a OnePlus One running UT OTA8 (stable) and I have some questions about the Signal app running in this environment. Firstly, there does not seem to be a way to send a message to a person that is not in the Signal contacts. The 'pencil' icon that is present in the Android version of this app is not present. It seems to me that one can only send a message to defined contact. Second, there seems to be no way to add a signal contact. The only way I have sort-of found to add a contact is to import contacts from the phone's address book. Third, when I attempt to import contacts from the phone to the Signal app, I end up with either the all Signal contacts being wiped or only one (the first defined contact in the phone) contact being imported.

How does the Signal app on UT deal with contacts and can I send a message to a person that is not a contact?

Apologies if I am missing something.
