Good call IMO. And Ubuntu Phone was at least in my view dead-end with the "Apple-like" restrictions and weirdness they bolted on top of normal Linux ecosystem.
I will miss Unity, as I'm I guess one of the rare breeds who found it a good UI. I won't miss Ubuntu Touch, except as far as it was committed to open-source.

For some work, I've switched from Fedora to macOS, what a nightmare!! After few weeks, I find Gnome way more efficient than macOS.
