  isn’t Sailfish (OS) mostly powered by the Russian government since about 10 years? it used to be a great phone OS but at that point I had to wipe my phone :(

    Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, in 2023 the company’s former leadership started a new company, temporarily named Jollyboys. The old Jolla OY was wound up, and they renamed the newer concern to Jolla Mobile Oy.

    The title uses word monotony, not monopoly.

  If they manage to sell 10.000 copies, they will work on “The Other Half” which gives the phone hardware modding capabilities!
