Hi there! My first post after reading many of our discussions here on /BuyFromEu and the best part of it? I can post it here instead of Reddit :)
I just want to tell you guys that I have preordered a Jolla Phone with Sailfish OS today. I‘m pretty sure it‘s not the time for me to ditch my iPhone, but it‘s the perfect time for me to support that effort + I‘m really curious of how that os will look in real :)
Anyone of you also playing around with the idea of buying a Jolla? :)
They also use an Android kernel with libhybris, which means they rely on a lot of Android components and are not very independent.
I just wish they would use mainline kernels instead.
Also, their App Support is literally an Android in a container with some proprietary integration parts into the proprietary UI.
Just two things would make it a lot more interesting:
Pretty sure the proprietary UI is the reason there are many more apps for the other phone distros.
