So I do nevertheless support Ubuntu Touch and wish them well, even though at it's current state I see little reason to use it myself.
Thanks for this insight,
- I was left wondering exactly this after using UT for awhile - if sailfish would be a viable alternative - and there is simply no way I would use something less open.
Ubuntu is a borked cadaver infested with webfarts
crawling around pretending to be actual programs,
but yes, apt-get on UT still works.
The only use for apt-get are console programs but that still beats nothing at all by a huge margin.

Still,
even then wiping Ubuntu Touch
and trying to shoehorn Nemo is beginning to seem to be
potentially more attractive than continuing to suffer this
suicidally depressive Ubuntu Touch.

A tablet with Ubuntu Touch sounds like a
cutting board with led background.
Useful, perhaps,
for chopping onions
