I used a Blackberry Passport for a couple of years.

Blackberry 10 was, again, a lovely OS but lacked apps.

And like OS/2 2/3/4, its limited ability to run a subset of apps from
a rival platform meant that there was little reason for app vendors to
do a native version, so most didn't.

But the thing about Ubuntu Touch that I thought had potential was the
commonality of a desktop/tablet/phone OS that could run the same apps
across all 3 platforms.

Sailfish does not offer that so I am not very interest for my own use,
although I wish Jolla well. The Huawei/Hongmeng/Aurora deal could
really help them, potentially, but I am not sure it will pan out.

I loved KDE 1.x. For me it finally made Linux usable as a desktop OS.

KDE 2 was IMHO uncomfortably bloated. KDE 3 was a top-heavy
abomination that I could not stand. Since then it's got worse, much
much worse.

Ah, OK.

Well good!
