    When I download and install userland, will it still be in the form of an Android app? Or will the Linux distro/userland take the place of the android operating system completely?

    When I set up a system how do I back it up and restore it?

    I've frequently had the problem where once I get a Linux install working the way I want it will simply disappear, especially if I'm low on memory.

Our Different Plans for Thunderbird on Android

  Revealed: Our Different Plans for Thunderbird on Android A little while ago, it was announced that Thunderbird was, sort of, coming to Android . When we saw that announcement, the UserLAnd Technologies team thought "Why don't we bring it to Android for real?".  So we have and it is now on the Play Store . This is the first release of the actual desktop version of Thunderbird for Android. It has some bumps currently, for example there is a awkward pause before Thunderbird is displayed, but we will improve BirdBox over time and we don't see any issues that cannot be solved in future releases. We are charging for this app to help fund our open source work, but you can run Thunderbird in our free app, UserLAnd , if desired. BirdBox will allow us to create a more convenient and tailored experience for Thunderbird users. Any improvements developed while working on BirdBox will find their way back into UserLAnd. Lastly, I have some promo codes if desired.  Email us at sup...

The Internet Archive is Coming Back Online and So are our Gaming Apps

  About 1 month ago UserLAnd Technologies' apps which allow you to play retro games on Android stopped working.  The reason for this is that these apps act as a sort of browser extension for what the Internet Archive  has archived.  The apps provide a way to meaningfully use these games on Android, but we don't host the games ourselves.  This generally works well but the Internet Archive suffered multiple attacks (DDoS, databases hacked and website defaced) at the beginning of October.  The end result was that all of their services went offline.  The team at the Internet Archive prioritized getting the Wayback Machine and other services working before they restored their collection of games.  The good news is that the games (and other sw) are now back online.  Their blog has a summary of what is working currently.  I am guessing we will see some slowness and some random outages as they continue to restore and improve their services, bu...
