    They are trying to make money to stay afloat. Postmarketos is a community project so it’s not comparable. And neither Purism nor Pine64 seem to be huge commercial successes just like Jolla, though they seem to be doing a bit better.

      I have no problem with them making money, far from it. My problem is with how. If their OS didn’t require a friggin subscription service, I’d buy their phone. What happens when I don’t pay for the next payment cycle? My phone gets shut off? The OS stops working? I’m only limited to making phone calls? Fuck that.
