Applications with problems in SFOS 4

I thought it might be useful to list some Jolla Store apps that might have problems running under SFOS 4 so developers or other maintainers might be able to look at compatibility.

I’ll start:

Editor by GoAlexander. Seems to have /home/nemo hardcoded as the user directory when attempting to open a file. On my xperia xa2 ultra, the phone crashes shortly after the open file dialog appears. Thought it was a fluke at first – sfos 4 on this device does do this sometimes – but it is repeatable when I test this. I didn’t notice other issues, so if this was fixed it would probably be fine again.

(I bet a number of apps could be updated to check for the current user’s home directory rather than assuming /home/nemo which had been a safe assumption previously.)
