Tested it on Fairphone 6 with /e/OS and it works, but it can be a bit janky at times.
Sorry, but I'm seeing the far right agenda against immigrants/tourists being pushed quite extremely here and on other social media. Here's my opinion as a tourist that stayed here for two weeks.
For example, on Instagram, a post was made that there were too many people waiting for the Sliema ferry, and it was framed in such a way to blame tourists. However, I was on this ferry and it literally skipped one of its entry in their timetable (ferry did not arrive) so the amount of people doubled while waiting for the next one. If you take a look, the timetable they have online and in-person is different.
Traffic and public transport IS definitely a problem and a major bottleneck, however, as someone living in the EU and that commutes daily to work and back with a bicycle, it makes absolutely no sense as to why the Maltese feel the need to drive like they'll be late as if they won't arrive anywhere they want in 15 minutes. The vast majority of the population would benefit massively from electric bikes or scooters, as this is a small island if your government actually wanted to push for more road safety. If you're extremely late, Bolt/Uber are 5-10€, as opposed to EU's average of 30€ per ride.
I see trash everywhere, and I simply refuse to believe this to be a tourist problem. I've went to some pretty remote residential areas and I've seen trash everywhere. I understand that there are limitations when it comes to garbage sorting, but there is no excuse to having dedicated dumpsters that residents can put their trash in, either in the building or somewhere close in the street, as it works in the entire EU. This doesn't cost a lot, and you could do it if you wanted to.
I went to many beaches and most of them had room even though it's peak summer. This appears to be mostly an issue with Comino/Blue Lagoon now.
The only noise I've experienced in my apartment that woke me up was fireworks, not by any tourists.
As someone who left 5,000+ EUR in this country's economy and who is maybe planning to move here, I can definitely say that this country is beautiful and much more advanced than many other countries, but you seem to take that for granted.
I'm a 25 year old non EU national currently residing in Central Europe and working as a software engineer whilst studying cybersecurity.
Making plans to move next year to Malta, however, last year I had surgery to remove an acoustic neuroma, which is one of the rarer types of benign brain tumors:

It was completely removed, however, there are slim chances it can return over the years, so an MRI every year is crucial to monitor.
Does anyone know how is Malta with regards to these healthcare situations for non EU nationals? I'm assuming it's definitely not a neurosurgical center given its small size, but would I have access to international treatments in an uneventful case that this becomes necessary?
Thanks.
Da li se neko preselio na Malti i da radi u industriji? Koliko teško je dobiti posao, kakav je život i koje su te sve minorne stvari koje turisti ne primećuju? Može li se proći sa engleskim jezikom?
