Ubuntu Touch OTA-11 Release

Re:Ubuntu Touch OTA-11 Release by phjesusthatguy3 on Thursday October 24, 2019 @08:34AM (#21343994)

I bought my OnePlus One (second-hand, last year) specifically to run Ubuntu Touch. I tried it out, and really what drove me to putting LineageOS on it wasn't the battery life or the lack of apps (lack of apps was a plus in my opinion) but the fact that the browser couldn't display Slack in a way that I could use it. I am going to try out this new version and if Slack works, I'm keeping it.

It seems ridiculous that one webapp would cause a change in OS, but it really is an essential tool for me.

Slack was working in the browser recently (albeit slowly), but they have recently rolled out a change which just point-blank refuses to run on Morph's user-agent :(

The good thing about everything being a web app is that it's inherently cross-platform. /s

Yes, I tried that. No, it didn't help, unfortunately.
