@okias For these reasons I prefer to buy also the hardware from a company that works on mainlining like the #Librem5 by @purism.

And yes, developing the software and OS is a huge (thus costly) endeavor.

Therefore it is possible to support the development of #PureOS with a total optional subscription:

Also the development is in the open. Here you can see the milestones:

Community Idea: Desktop Mode via USB-C Video Out

What if your Jolla phone could transform into a full Linux desktop? By leveraging Phosh, KDE Plasma, or GNOME, we could make this a reality—no need to reinvent the wheel.

Introducing the Jolla Sailors initiative:

A community-driven program where contributors help fund and guide development. Think of it as a crew of supporters: developers, testers, and enthusiasts: working together to bring Desktop Mode of other new future OS updates to life.

Jolla Sailors replaces the Sailfish Subscription, offering early access to new software, exclusive discounts, and a referral program; earning you savings on hardware and accessories.

Want to help shape the future? Join the crew! (This is a concept idea)

Vote for this idea (or share your own) on the forum:
