You are 100% right there! The easiest way to resize a photo is, of course;

Code:
[nemo@Sailfish ~]$ 
[nemo@Sailfish ~]$ cp Pictures/Camera/20160821_004.jpg .
[nemo@Sailfish ~]$ identify 20160821_004.jpg
20160821_004.jpg JPEG 1920x1080 1920x1080+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 301KB 0.000u 0:00.000
[nemo@Sailfish ~]$ mogrify -geometry 190x100 20160821_004.jpg
nexusback@toosa:~$ identify 20160821_004.jpg
20160821_004.jpg JPEG 178x100 178x100+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 8.98KB 0.000u 0:00.000
[nemo@Sailfish ~]$

You didn't maintain aspect ratio. 1920 x 1080 should be 178 x 97.

(sorry, had to do it)

Sure, and even that's not exact...
1920x1080 is 1.777777777...
190x100 is 1.9
178x97 is 1.835051546

So in my approach there is 10687ppm difference, and in your approach just 9687ppm difference...

However to the naked eye both approaches give exactly the same result, there is around one pixels worth of difference in the end result

For me the reason I keep Android around (as a dual-boot) is GPS navigation software - the best we have is Modrana, and while that has come a long way it is still problematic to use in a car (no voice input, speech directions are overly precise, etc).

Perhaps I should revamp the navigation code in Saera.

Dave is right - it's services that matter. This is ironic given the way Maemo led with integrating services into the UX, the n9 continued with and if ever Jolla get around to opening up, Sailfish uses also.

If Jolla do, I might be back on Sailfish, but in the meantime I gave up fighting and I've been on Android for even the basic things (SIP, syncing, CalDAV, managing music, navigation, browsing)

It's pretty much what services you use and how you define a service...
If you are like me, there is no real alternative to SFOS, as Android just don't cut it; All my services are of the "i-made-it-myself-and-it-works-miracles-for-me" variety.

Well, in fact I do, however I like to keep in touch with them IRL, and not via messaging apps...
I'm not in fb, twitter, whatsapp, skype, linkedin... Instead I often go and visit my friends and occasionally have lunch/dinner/beer with them. Poor me, I have next to no social life it seems...
