Now I've used Iodé OS ( @iode ) as my daily mobile OS for three weeks. Good so far. Based on Android Open Source Platform and Lineage OS. From France.

My intention is to write something later on my web site (hemrin.com) after some more usage. And eventually also talk about it on Hacker Public Radio ( @hpr ).

If you are looking for a #linux based #European #mobileOS that can be a daily driver for many people that has #nospyware or #algorithms built in, respects your #privacy by default and is easy to use, #Jolla #Sailfish OS is an easy recommendation as an #alternativeto #Android and #iOS.

They are cooking up a new #phone for delivery #2026 which you can now preorder: https://commerce.jolla.com/products/jolla-phone-preorder

@nomad99 @jolla I have also noticed the decline, which is okay as Christmas is coming. But #Jolla definitely should plan something you have proposed! Especially the website clarification!

Video of the device would be amazing also if they have some demo units available.

#Jolla lets push the sales! So far numbers look good, but there needs to be more push to double the sales, which would bring quite nicely new people in to the #SailfishOS. #Europe deserves its own #mobileOS.

Jolla Lanza Nuevo Smartphone con Sailfish OS Enfocado en la Privacidad

Jolla ha anunciado un nuevo smartphone que revive su apuesta por la independencia móvil y la privacidad, impulsado por su sistema operativo Sailfish OS basado en Linux. El dispositivo se posiciona en la gama media-alta con una pantalla AMOLED de 6.7 pulgadas y potentes especificaciones, buscando atraer a usuarios que rechazan el ecosistema de Google y Apple (Fuente Gizmochina).

Jolla ha presentado el que promete ser su modelo de smartphone más ambicioso hasta la fecha, un dispositivo que desafía el duopolio de Android e iOS al utilizar el sistema operativo Sailfish OS. Este sistema operativo de código abierto, desarrollado en Finlandia y basado en Linux, es conocido por su fuerte enfoque en la privacidad y el control del usuario.

Sailfish OS: La Alternativa de Linux

La principal diferenciación del teléfono radica en Sailfish OS, que ofrece una interfaz de usuario minimalista y gestual. Crucialmente, el sistema es compatible con las aplicaciones de Android a través de una capa de compatibilidad, lo que permite a los usuarios acceder a un vasto catálogo de apps sin sacrificar la filosofía de privacidad que propone Sailfish.

El nuevo teléfono de Jolla está claramente dirigido a desarrolladores, entusiastas de Linux y, sobre todo, a aquellos usuarios que buscan escapar de la recopilación masiva de datos inherente a Google y Apple, ofreciendo una opción real y potente fuera de los ecosistemas tradicionales.

This video is about iodéOS, but the same idea applies to other privacy-focused Android options. I personally use GrapheneOS.

It’s not too hard to install deGoogled android on supported older devices, and it’s definitely worth the effort.

If you don’t want to install it yourself, there are also phones that come with de-Googled Android out of the box.
