I worked in a company where reviews took days. The CTO complained a lot about the speed, but we had decent code quality.
Now I work at a company where reviews take minutes. We have 5 lines of technical debt per 3 lines of code written. We spend months to work on complicated bugs that have made it to production.
On track? Jolla has a track record of shipping late (or not at all in an unfortunate case). So if they kept their promises this time I would be more than surprised. Still, I do hope and wish them that they can ship at some point in time without any major disaster.
Using a Sailfish phone comes from the desire not to use Google or Apple. So wanting to pay using those companies seems an odd requirement. Luckily for paying there are still widely accepted alternatives.
I wouldn't say it is a requirement. The thing is, if you want to use bank apps in NL, they all quit with native NFC. It is either Google Pay or Apple Pay >:(
I still use Sailfish daily. I have no problem with the UI, but their Firefox is seriously outdated and predictive text for the keyboard is no longer available.
Not following Switzerland, so I don't know whether this was part of the discussion: Most cards in Europe, Apple and Google are American. With Trump treating Europe like an enemy, it's stupid to use any of those. This year I have returned to use 90% cash after having no wallet since 2021.
It says the code signing cert has been revoked by now.
How does verification work? Only at installation time or will it prevent running the installed files later if installation happened when the cert was still accepted?
