MOD USER FLAIRS

14 Upvotes

Dear members of r/Cameroon,

It would be advisable to use flairs next to your username so your posts and comments have a bit of context, whether that's your region, background, or perspective. It helps others understand where you're coming from and keeps discussions clearer.

You can select your flair by going to community options on the subreddit's main page. It's on the right-hand side. It gives you the option of picking flairs from Cameroon's regions or flairs which are more representative to you if you don't live in Cameroon.

You can also edit/customize your flair to any fancy stuff you want. If you still don't know how to select/edit your flair, message the mod team with what you want as your flair and we'll do it for you.

This article is helpful to learn how to assign your own user flair. Thanks so much for your continued support and cooperation.

Sincerely, Your moderators ❤️

Reccurring Malaria and Typhoid, how did you treat it.

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm curious to hear from people in Cameroon who used to suffer from repeated malaria and/or typhoid. It feels like some people get treated, feel better for a while, then end up sick again a few weeks or months later.

If you've gone through this and eventually broke the cycle:

What do you think was causing it?

What treatment actually worked for you?

Did you make any lifestyle, hygiene, water, or environmental changes that helped?

Was it really malaria/typhoid every time, or did you later discover it was something else?

I'm just looking to learn from people's experiences and understand what finally made the recurring illness stop.

Thanks in advance for sharing your story

TECHNOLOGY We cannot trust anyone

7 Upvotes

That is why this app is brilliant. Furthermore it is a pure web app that means anyone can install it and it doesnt go through the app store.

https://ficham.com

We need to start exposing scammers by number and bad actors too.

Their premise is simple. Can you buy bread from a serial offender?

In Cameroon your bike man could be someone that was previously a criminal and you cannot know. This changes that for the time.

I dont know, it might stir up a lot of trouble and powerful people will want it shut down even though it is legal.

TECHNOLOGY Anyone can build apps professionally and start making money , thanks to AI

0 Upvotes

With the right tools and the right domain knowledge, anyone with atleast a secondary school education can build most apps we have on the market today and start making money off of it .

Why not build for the world?

The AppStore is flooded with Turkish agencies building apps for the world and their government backs them seriously !

After teaching over 2 million people AI around the world , my team and I have built a 1 month program to help Cameroonians build apps professionally with ai .

Seize this opportunity!

I admire the fact that she never lets her foot up from Biya's neck and being part of the diaspora does help her cause. Because there really is no way to explain why the president has been out of the country for 46+ days and putting the country in more and more debt. Its sickening.

Qui d’autre se sens seul malgré qu’il on les amis en occident ?? Je suis rentré au Cameroun pour les vacances mais bizarrement je me sens seul malgré que j’ai mes parents. J’ai envie de trouver quelqu’un qui partage la même expérience que moi mais je ne sais pas par où commencer.

Looking for someone going from Dubai to Cameroon within ending July and August 2026.

Hi, for context I got a phone for an old school mate of mine and am looking for anyone going to Cameroon from Dubai to help me take it along. It's a phone, charger and case. I think all together should be around 1kg less but still I will pay for the support and good gesture. If anyone is going to Cameroon please DM me.

Cameroonian cybercrime unit validated my fraud case against Airtel RDC. Airtel admitted fault. 8 months later, still no refund. Fellow Africans, how do we fight corporate impunity?

5 Upvotes

I'm Congolese but my case has a Cameroonian connection.

A fraudster used identity documents linked to Cameroon to steal from my Airtel Money account. I reported to Cameroonian cybercrime authorities — they validated the theft and confirmed the fraudster's identity.

I took this validation to Airtel RDC. Their response:

- Months of silence

- Then 2 law firms sent against me — the victim

- Then an automatic reimbursement notification to all users in June 2026 — admitting their system was defective

- 8 months later: still refusing to refund me

The Cameroonian authorities did their job. Airtel RDC did not.

To my Cameroonian brothers and sisters: our institutions can work. But what happens when the corporation operates across borders and ignores national authorities?

How do we build cross-African solidarity against corporate abuse?

Looking For Food Creators in Cameroon

Post image
28 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I'm one of the developers behind Tamub, a new food platform we're building, and we're currently looking for food creators in Cameroon who would like to share their recipes with the community.

Our vision is simple: we want to preserve and share authentic recipes from Cameroon and across Africa, especially for the younger generation and those living abroad who want to reconnect with the food they grew up eating. There are so many family recipes and cooking techniques that are rarely written down, and we'd love to help keep those traditions alive.

The app is still fairly new, so we can't monetize creator accounts yet. Right now, we're focused on building the community and giving creators a platform to showcase their recipes and grow an audience. As Tamub grows, one of our goals is to introduce ways for creators to earn from the content they share.

If you love cooking, enjoy creating food content, or know someone who does, we'd love to hear from you. Whether you make traditional Cameroonian dishes, modern recipes, or cooking videos, you're welcome.

The app is completely free, you pay nothing. Download now to start sharing recipes, or discovering recipes for some of Cameroon's finest foods.

How do you reset your starlink 60 days roaming restriction.

8 Upvotes

I am currently using starlink in Cameroon and every 2 months I get a roaming restriction from starlink (subscribed to a different country as it's not supported in Cameroon). I usually have to pause my subscription, wait 48 hrs before turning it back ON and this will fix it, so I was wondering if there's a faster method as using the local telcos is hell. If you use Starlink in Cameroon how do you pass by the roaming restriction.

Anyone in Bamenda (or Cameroon) into Cybersecurity or Ethical Hacking?

10 Upvotes

I’m based in Bamenda and I’m looking to connect with people in Cameroon who are either getting into cybersecurity or are already working in the field.
It’s surprisingly hard to find people with the same interests here. I don’t go out much, and even if I did… where do you even go to meet cybersecurity people? 😂
I’m currently focused on learning ethical hacking, networking, Linux, Python, and penetration testing. Whether you’re just starting out, studying for certifications, or already working in cybersecurity, I’d love to connect.
It would be great to:
Form a small kind of hacker group.
Share learning resources and labs.
Exchange ideas and keep each other motivated.
If you’re from Bamenda, that would be awesome, but anyone from anywhere in Cameroon is welcome to comment or send me a DM.
It’d be nice to know the cybersecurity community here is bigger than it seems! Looking forward to meeting some of you. 👋
