I would argue that UT has advantages for tinkerers, you can do whatever you want and can simply reflash and retain data like nothing happened :) Also, technically UT doesn't do anything to stop tinkering. You tinker all you want. It's just built very differently compared to the tradition Linux OSes so you need to do the tinkering differently. As for the media controls, there's actually sensor gestures in QML for shaking and such but in my experiments, it's very wonky and triggers erratically. There's one where you cover the light sensor for 1 second which kinda works well but drains the battery since it's active even when locked, at least on the FP4.
@@AninoNiKugi .... UT (as far as I know) does not have VoLTE 4G support for the US. People are tired of waiting for something that most likely will not come. It is not relevant anymore.
@@Firefly55X UT is an open-source project. So if you are tired of waiting you can contribute to help implementing VoLTE support ;-) . Anyway it's on his way, it is just slow because it's a hard task!
@@oansseau ..... People "help" by giving monetary support, to which many are not now because they are tired of the nondelivery of the product on the VoLTE side of things. I hear everything works fine in Europe (to which these guys are from) but not in the US. I guess they just give the big middle finger to the US. Some people just withdrew their support because they are tired of years of waiting.
@@Firefly55X Supposedly Marius is getting/has got 5G and VoLTE working on Fairphone 5. Sounds great! But yeah, no VoLTE at the moment means literally 0 people in the entire country can use UT as a phone. Completely useless other than a neat device to poke at. I'm more angry at US cellular companies though, since they are the ones making the unneeded restriction to VoLTE only phones.

I find it ironic for being UT devs and advocates that at least one of you use macOS.
Doesn't hardly anyone care any more. You guys took to long on the lte 4 g crude. You still not have delivered so no one is listening.
What are you talking about? 😄
