YT desc: First impressions of the Finnish phone company Jolla’s new phone running SailfishOS, a Linux distribution with the ability to run Android applications on the device.
Looks like the viewer hasnt used the os before which makes for a bit more interesting pov
How is the open-sourcing of their previously closed main UI components going? IMHO before that isn’t completed this is a complete non-starter.
Then look somewhere else.
There has been meaningful progress with many of the core apps. The camera app has been fully open sourced and the weather app too and if I am not mistaken also Notes and Gallery. Most of the system has been open source anyway. It is primarily the UI that isn’t and there has been no sign of that changing in the near future.
