It was indeed meant that way. I'd love to get the Ubuntu Phone efforts closer 
to KDE - after all, it's Qt on Linux, just like Jolla, and they had a visible 
presence and tried to get folks interested in writing for them.

And while I'm, all pro blackberry, with Ubuntu being Linux and them running a 
proprietary OS, I'd call it unfortunate that Blackberry is far more visible in 
our community than Canonical's Phone/Qt efforts!

I might work for a competitor of Canonical but I'm talking with my KDE hat on 
here, besides, openSUSE does rather little on mobile phones :D

It's Jolla, Firefox and Canonical carrying the Linux Phone Flag* and I'm quite 
happy that two of those are Qt based. And I want them close to KDE - good for 
everybody.

So, sorry if it was looking like bashing, it wasn't meant that way.

little in common with the Linux desktop other than sharing the kernel and how 
their development process is as closed as it gets, although I'm glad there are 
efforts to get Qt to Android
