I think that if we want to be free from google and apple duopoly on mobile we need to embrace linux phones. It is the only solution. Google is trying to close the golden cage slowly and we need to escape on other operating system also on mobile. We re only delay a problem. We need phone preinstalled with linux for mass adoption. We need more apps for linux phones and more userbase.

Yes I was surprised myself. I expected to need to keep my Android phone kicking around for the odd thing yet, I have found Sailfish alternatives to over half of my Android apps and for the other half they work just like they did on android. I have not noticed any slow down or anything. Even my bank app works, although from what I have read that does depend on your bank.
