I am happy that #Jolla, the maker of #SailfishOS is profitable after 10 years, I grant it to the #Finns and their open #smartphone #operatingsystem!https://linuxsmartphones.com/after-ten-years-sailfish-os-maker-jolla-is-finally-profitable/

@ulintl Yep and it's sad to see opensource phone makers (pine64 and or to a certain extent Pure - i don't like their com style) are not focusing on integrating this OS instead of playing the card of fits-for-every-wanabe-distro and having an half-ass solution in the end.PostmarketOS, Ubports? i3 UI like?! seriously?!Why not but provide a first well integrated solution, then show other things are possible on a community page or something...

@hicks I agree to that, choice comes really short also at manufacturers of hardware with FOSS-OS.Should really be adressed - though I don't really see this so far.Even at Notebooks mit pre-installed Linux you mostly are pinned down to 1 or a few distros support by the manufacturer.

@ulintl I agree but for me, it is less important for a PC. Pretty standard and with have peripherals.A smartphone is constrained by its form factor and mobility (on the go).Sailfish adapts its paradigm to the smartphone, gesture based first. Postmarket approach is a gimmick of linuxers having no real need for a smartphone. I'm not interest of having a term emulator or buggy/sluggish libreoffice (as-is). A smartphone is an assistant for my administrative d2d tasks on the go.
