I love complaining without actually knowing how it works.
only 6 months ago, when my N900 was still functioning (USB port...) i would have completely agreed with you
now i had for a little over two months the NOKIA Lumia 1020 as my primary phone (wasn't going to use the Jolla for that, was i?)
yes, m$ LostDOS is even worth on a phone then on a computer (possibly because it's not so popular, thus less "hackers" are working on it...) BUT... i don't mind IT WORKS!
sometimes i write three sentences with only taping a dozen letters (thanks to the predictive keyboard)
not as geek as the N900 keyboard, but so much faster!
for the rest, NOKIA obviously had a big input on WP 8.x and the functionality is even better then the best we ever had from NOKIA (individual ring tone per contact to give but one example)
it's a pity NOKIA had to disappear for this to happen (certainly wasn't needed) but... again, it's the best NOKIA phone i ever had

The backup system in Jolla (The Vault) is based on git, therefore you can have 50 backups, but the files have just one copy per version.
Let's illustrate on photos:
If you make one backup in April, another in August (taking pictures in the meanwhile) and a third one in December (again, lots of pictures in between), then the size of the three backups combined will be the same as the size of the last (December) backup.
Of course, it is up to you how many backups you want to preserve (you can delete the rest), but complaining that Jolla saves all backups is beyond my understanding.
I'd call it smart, if anything.
(no restoration of wallpaper (there is even only ONE - seems they can't even do THAT) Wi-Fi networks and so on and so forth...)
going to try Veeall's tip, backing up .local & all that & see what comes out of it.

if jolla call list app or message app is minimized to multi task menu as the latest view app then they are totally black in multi task menu. if they are minimized and not top left they are looking good in multi task menu. is this a bug or expected behaviour?

However, after purchasing the phone I found out, that Jolla is even worse then Apple or Google. With iPhone or Android you can at least use e-mail and alarm clock without being forced to add an account.
I read your privacy policy and could not find any convincing purpose for this data collection madness.
I do not want to give you my personal data just for accessing the software repositories. Please, be better than Google and Apple and change your policies.

@Dave999, I can't reproduce it. My covers for all apps, including those you mention, stay the same regardless of the position on the home screen.
@Yminus, I could not agree more! I love the idea of the phone shipped as a blank sheet - in fact I would have prefered even fewer apps preinstalled - but the idea that you need to create an account... My first thoughts were exactly the same as yours.
@coderus, nice
I would prefer a thinner case but I like yours too.

well, @Yminus, @pichlo, how would you like to access email for example if you do not have a mail reader application...?
To install the application you need to download it from the store, and to download from store you need to have an account... capish?
If you do not like that, well you can always install Nemo on your device, and do without SFOS and the associated eyecndy.

Oh. My. God. Outrageous!
That said, they should definitely do away with the Google tracking on their websites and use Piwik or something.

As far as I can tell Jolla knows more about me than Nokia ever did.
If you bought your Jolla through their webstore they actually know your full name, adress etc. and linked the IMEI of the device to it. The same IMEI is linked to your Jolla account making the profile pretty complete.
