>> are they any better than Android when it comes to privacy and security?
Privacy +1: the company behind Sailfish OS (Jolla) doesn't generate its revenue through ads.
Privacy/Security -1: Sailfish OS currently doesn't have any real privacy/security framework, other than POSIX file permissions. But they're working on it.
>> Is it feature-rich (some call that "bloated")?
The Sailfish OS ships with a good set of features. It really does leverage a whole range of technologies from the Linux/FOSS ecosystem: Linux kernel, glibc, Qt, Wayland, Pulseaudio, Connman (think NetworkManager), oFono. There are still some important features that are missing (e.g. LTE, MMS, Wifi tethering, Caldav -- but all of them are being worked on).
>> What about those Chinese investors?
What about them? What's your question? :)

My trust for some countries (US included) has been suffering a bit as of late. Otherwise thanks for the answers. (for some reason paragraphs I see when writing (or editing) a post aren't carrying over to the post itself :(
