Ahoy hoy, > > Yes, it's not 100% Free Software, but maybe 99%? It's less proprietary > out-of-the box than e.g. Android in Nexus devices I'm not sure if that is true. Yes, SailfishOS maybe free software for the most part, but the User Interface on the Jolla phones will be proprietary, as far as I understand it. On the Android OS, the only proprietary parts are the proprietary Google Apps afaik (but I may be mistaken), as well as the drivers. But after the first look, I still think that a non-google Android ROM with F-Droid is to be preferred over the Jolla phones.
I also agree that competition is a good thing, but we already have semi-free competing mobile Operating Systems. I much rather see ressources be devoted to things like replicant.us or neo900.org But still, thanks for putting it on my radar - I subscribed for their newsletter just to stay informed :-) Regards, Simon
