    Hopefully this means we see an influx of development for Linux based mobile OS’.

    I realise that’s a very pie in the sky dream to have. But damn it, I just want a native Firefox browser on UT.

      linux based mobile os’s don’t mean much if the manufacturers of phones are making it harder and harder to unlock bootloaders

        Ubuntu touch is Linux based also, which is my choice due to newer hardware support over postmarket. (Currently running a volla quintus) Though I can see myself moving over to sailfish, as the default browser in UT is morph based, and creating web apps can be something of a pain due to unsupported browser issues…

        All of these OS’ suffer from a lack of app development though, hopefully this Google nonsense helps change that, though mass adoption is usually the precursor to app dev, hence my pie in the sky comment.
