I think that You defined it here. No one have a FCKD idea of how future of hackable FOSS devices running Linux (not necessary QT, but why not, if it's possible?) will look like. Except for the fact, that many people - including me - is sure, that there *is* bright future for such devices.

Be it great device from any random company (most preferably, Nokia, but nothing seems to indicate that, for now), or something Vivaldi-like, we would stick to it, if it's made the way we like (as much FOSS and hackability as possible, extensibility/moddable, Linux - preferably mainstream kernel - based, etc).

So, generally, inclusive. I don't try to push You into "Nokia shirt" - as I prefer to talk with You as with Community Member - but there was some binary irritation turning hate towards Nokia, due to last few years mess. I think, that now it calmed up a bit, and everyone can care about own projects + collaborate where it's feasible, without shouting "You did that to us in the past!" (from both sides).
