Accidentally... I don't really see how. Unless someone made a mistake on the infra side, but I'm not aware of any such happening.

I saw. But from what I know, I still don't see that happening accidentally. Unless you change your release through SSU, you're tied to a given release until the store switches you over to the new one.

We don't have rolling repositories, but seperate repositories per software release.

I know and adding reliable cloud syncing can't be easy. Just venting a bit. It's frustrating that my N9 still does so much more than my Jolla.

But you get my point. Only so much patience.

Next months update won't be software but rather new hardware according to my undercover source at jolla.

If only your track record lent any credence to this ...

I concur...
I just relalized the whole world as we know it is built around speculations. Why not this thread?

They were asked what happened to this & this is all we got...

I was just about to post a link to the press release that that twitter thread refers to. Have to say I agree that it is less then underwhelming and perhaps worrying, and not what the announcement of an announcement implied was on the way.

Whilst it is good news that Jollla is increasing the number of local sales partners, I'm afraid that I'm not sure I believe they can live on a Finland-only retail environment.

I couldn't read that article referenced in that twitter thread I linked to, because it breaks in google translate, I assume you speak Finnish.
Getting rather tired of their regular hints that something substantive will be announced, only to find later that it's some "piddly" thing (or nothing at all).
