Sailfish licensing is unfortunate.
Unless you have one of their handful of (obsolete) blessed phones and pay them money for the privilege, you can't use their stuff.
I get that they're effectively a startup spun out of Nokia, and that they'd rather sell value than give it away. Still, non-Android Linux for touchscreens is in a sad state. Having one of the only options locked up where few people can try it and nobody can contribute to it makes the ecosystem worse.
There's gotta be a better solution to raise all the boats than get a handful of enthusiasts with old Sonys to pay them $30 each.
