What cultural faux pas should I try to avoid making in Uganda?

"It is important to be respectful of local customs and traditions when visiting Uganda. It is considered rude to point with your finger, so it is best to use an open hand when gesturing. It is also important to dress modestly, as revealing clothing is considered inappropriate. It is also important to be aware of the local religious beliefs and to avoid discussing sensitive topics such as politics or religion. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the local language and to avoid speaking in a loud or aggressive manner. Finally, it is important to be respectful of the local people and to avoid taking photographs without permission," wrote a member who made the move to Uganda.
