Maybe you would like to contribute to my Wishlist for Android support in 2018 on TJC if you haven't already? <shameless plug>
well, that term is long gone now. And the effect of android support didn't bring anything to sailfish, in fact, it just did harm. Just look how many poeple ask for android support on unofficial ports So when you take away android apps from sailfish, what's left? As someone who moved to AOSP because my J1 died all I can say that I miss gestures and simplicity of OS as such. But that's it. From the app POV AOSP is just so much better. Apart for "it has terminal" freaks, sailfsh is great as some feature phone but "smart" part is nowhere near the year we live in.
It kind of reminds me of GNOME, I do like the workflow of gnome shell but gnome apps on the other hand.......
