Nothing major, beyond the controversies listed here[0] and the developer's more cavalier approach to whitelisting. Plus resource usage was double what was on offer by the much more fine-grained uMatrix. At the time at least. Maybe stil

Just another anecdote to "ad" to the pile: In an effort to keep my Chromium/FF instances 'clean' I just use https-everywhere and uMatrix (since it came out - my trust in noscript and abp was waning a long way back).

- No email notifications - a blessing and a curse. The Dekko client is/was third party, but being the best available has become the de facto default (not a bad name for a band...). - Inability to make use of the package repos. Mentione

Started off playing through a few of the recommended games, but to be honest that isn't what I do with a phone. I mostly read or communicate. Literally no games on there at the moment. To answer the question though, I did try tuxracer,

I'll answer any basic questions anyone has about using the Ubuntu phone - been using it for over 18 months now. Never have actually owned an Android/iOS phone and hope to keep it that way. It does everything I want it to. Not &#x2

Motivating post. I recently moved to a paid-for office because I haven't got it together enough to frame up a home office over the last few years (playing the new child card for that one). It doesn't cost a great deal, is a decent
