Yeap, and too much silence for that matter. Then again, it is the weekend and in fairness they haven't done any press release regarding the app[lication] store - only mailing list and twitter. I am no stranger to outages, and know that sometimes it's better to allow for a long outage to get proper service. Let's allow some time.
Other options, however, aren't a bad idea, and even Jolla encourages them :-)
1. There is no device out yet
2. The site is for those making apps for sailfishos, atleast until device is out.
3. There site is beta and not yet ready
4. There is very few apps uploade so far so no point for non devs to enter the site
5. I am sure the people working hard to get it ready but sitting here pressing F5 on the site on weekend is just plain stupid because the developers has the right to not work on free time even if some people may think they shall work 24h/7 days.
(Btw. I dont point at you I just pointed to the one you replyed.. and similar people with no life outside TMO)

If anything, if a lot of people go into the site it will give Jolla a good idea of the audience that is expecting, and will break it so that they have to fix it/scale it properly.

Unlike you, I do see value in anybody accessing this site, not just for the above, but also for the word of mouth. There may not be too many applications yet, but there will be, and non developers knowing about it is great for free marketing, as they will talk etc etc.
Weekend though, so the sailors deserve a rest

I so hate it when people expect those who work for their living to live for their work - only to fulfill our every desire as consumers. I'd rather have the folks @ jolla spend a day or two with their families than work on web servers. (Not that I assume many of them can these days.)

By keeping the threads Alive its safe to say that atleast x devices have been sold. Your welcome
I dont spend as Much time as some of you think over at TMO because i dont read nonsens
my life style require a time effective lifestyle.
I don't think anyone expect jolla to do anything better than other businesses. Jolla system is far from critical and can be down for years and contain 1000s of bugs and still be accepted so I hope they enjoy their weekends and fix the issues during the coming weeks.

I cant post so serious comments like yours. I just laugh at users comments here, don't stop it please!
