r/Uganda

Today is my last day here after spending 3 weeks here in lungujja and spent some time in Sembabule for my Kukyala.

As a white man from UK London I've truly had a wonderful time, moving around on my own always felt very safe and welcome.

I feel like this is now my second home and want to say thanks for the warmth and hospitality.

I will truly miss Kampala and hope to return soon.

Why is Uganda so limited when it comes to online opportunities?

I’ve had several situations where I’ve built systems or learned skills that could genuinely make me money online, only to find out that one crucial aspect isn’t available in Uganda. Whether it’s a payment method, a platform, or a tool, you’ll find a list of supported countries and Uganda simply isn’t on it.

Or you discover a tool that could help you make money, start using it, and then suddenly it’s blocked or restricted.

This has been happening repeatedly since the beginning of the year, and honestly, it’s frustrating.

I’ve had to take on other local jobs just to get by, while knowing I have skills that could take me much further online.

These limitations really kill someone’s potential.

Has anyone else been experiencing this?

Guys any way to receive dollar to dollar from usa to Uganda ? The receipent in Uganda should receive dollars

I am a person who likes being alone in most cases even when I was a child a would separate from my family and sit alone at the back of the the house away from everyone.

I am in my early 20s, I have friends and my friends are lovely and always want to hang out but I always decline and endup going somewhere else I can be or enjoy when am alone....I go to events alone. Even when I meet new and they start a jazz with me ....I get pissed feeling like someone is inconveniencing me.

Though I explained myself to my friends years back but sometimes I feel like I let them down.

This behavior i feel like its just growing every year cause now I stayed away from my friends and family for almost a year.

I stopped myself from even dating cause I endup sabotaging the relationship always since I really don't like people too close in my space. So in most cases I decline dates and outings....or hanging out with my partner.

And i don't think am an introvert or something like that cause am outgoing and kinder talkative....like in games can shout and cheer my team . Even i meet a stranger and we laugh , jazz or get to know each ...I want it to stop there.

Hi! I’m a woman in my 20s looking for people to explore and enjoy life with. ❤️

We could attend events, try new restaurants, hang out, chill, or even go clubbing once in a while and just have fun. Our 20s shouldn’t pass us by fr

Hit me up if you’re interested in making a new friend to hang out with. ❤️

🇳🇬 Nigerians — your languages are worth money, but are you being paid for it?

Google, Meta, OpenAI are spending billions to build AI that understands the world; but Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa are still largely invisible to these systems. Not because they're not valuable. Because no one has organised native speakers to contribute.

That's exactly what we're building at Afriklang — a Pan-African startup creating high-quality language datasets so AI finally works for us, not just around us.

💰 What's in it for you:

✅ Get paid to contribute voice & text data in your language

✅ All you need is your phone — work from anywhere, on your schedule

✅ No technical background needed — your native fluency is the skill

✅ Early members get priority access to higher-paying projects as we scale

Yoruba. Igbo. Hausa. Over 200 million speakers combined — and AI barely understands any of them. The speakers who join now will be first in line when demand explodes.

This is ground floor. Don't sleep on it.

Hey guys my current career is depressing me and I need to keep my head in the life game. I'm looking for a fighting chance, what are some short courses skills I can learn and start earning immediately.?

You can give as much detail as possible, I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Hi everyone, so I have been searching for stoney ever since I left uganda and I have been failed multiple times trying to ship to the united states. after my first order that shipped through canada before reaching Georgia, USA I learned that there are other versions of stoney that do not have the same flavor. I paid 85$ usd for a 6 pack of stoney and it was good but it was not the same stuff you can get in uganda. it was more like American ginger ale with a slight kick. I did research and found that there are other versions of stoney in southern africa that are not up to par with the stoney I know and love. if anyone could direct me to a website where I can get east african stoney, I prefer ugandan bc I have heard kenya stoney is not the same but maybe it is. I have not been to uganda since I was 12 and now I am 24. I have been craving stoney so hard for the last 12 years. I was super disappointed by the times I did order. I just need some real stoney back in my life if anyone knows a website that will ship to USA or if anyone is traveling from uganda or could ship from there pls lmk 🙏

Sunday boredom can be so serious. I had to step out and go to Papa's spot in Makindye to chill. I'm now sipping my Nilos as I wait for it to get get dark then I head back home.
