Ubports has released an update for their mobile OS Ubuntu Touch dubbed version "OTA-2 Focal". This update adds support for a few new devices such as the Fairphone 3; F(x)tec Pro1 X; and Volla Phone X23. Some of the devices already had support for the older Xenial based Ubuntu Touch versions so it's good to see them, get support for the newer OS. Some other parts of the update are improvements to the System Settings app; the ability to adjust edge sensitivity; over a dozen bug fixes; and more. Ubunutu Touch is a great option for those that want to escape Apple or Google. What it lacks in app support it makes up for in stability and ease of use. They have a GUI installer that is available in multiple formats and supports a lot of devices which makes getting Ubuntu Touch installed an easy task.
