Apart from tech crazies, nerds, phone enthusiasts - who does Jolla really want to attract to come over from iOS or Android?
I am so baffled....Like always crazy announcements "Sailfsih on Sony hardware - we will make an image and you can flash it. Just need a linux pc"...

I love Arch and i setup my laptop from scratch via shell. So i am not too concerned about all of it. But as a company who wants to become 3rd in mobile OS market? Sorry NO user will go through that....I am suprised if even >=2000 will do that world wide....

EDIT: typos / sorry in advance if that is conceived as a rant - not my intention
My emphasis...

This - sailfish OS - is a tech demo.

It's client / target market (I believe) is government(s), especially ones that don't want "5 eyes" watching them

Having said that I've got my €50 ready
