I recently pre-ordered the #Jolla Phone, a wonderful #European smartphone that will cost around 600€. Am I wrong?
I'm pretty sure that most of you are thinking: oh, yes, so wrong! For this price, you get a Samsung or iPhone, or even a Chinese rocket for half the cost! 🚀
However, I believe that perspective is indeed mistaken: a) a Samsung or iPhone with similar specifications costs more, not the same as a #jollaphone. b) I don't want the latest super-smartphone with ultra-high performance but zero respect for my privacy and self-welfare. c) If you're paying that much for a phone, you're not really worried about the price; you're motivated by other things: status, trends, marketing...
I just want a phone that doesn't help the data extraction industry and make #bigtechs even bigger and stronger, especially the ones that want to bring Europe (the whole world) to its knees 🇪🇺. And #SailfishOS devices appear to be a way to have that.
So, maybe I'm wrong, but I really don't think so.
