How far should I insert the SIM card? - pajux - 02-05-2020

See pic. I can push the SIM card further even until it's almost completely hidden by the metal. Either the way in the pic or completely inserted, the SIM card is not recognized by Ubuntu Touch or by postmarketOS.

Is this the correct way?

Is there an easy way to pull the SIM card out aside from using a sticky tape?

I'm not sure but it looks like you have a nano-sim, and the phone needs a micro-sim. If that is the problem try to get an adapter, they usually come with the sim card when you buy it.
