Now that I have read this hole feedback page I think I agree. I think that wouldn’t have cut the users that want to buy the device, for non tech person like me it would have given more courage as I am personally so use to having the fingerprint scanner for example, it maybe would have made it easier to identify the bugs/problems related to SFOS from HW problems and made the adaptation as a daily driver more easy for a lot of people.
Of course this is gut feeling of someone who doesn’t know much of the field (and kind of wish as a consumer wanting to find European alternative for next daily driver). Of course nobody can’t have magic ball telling that kind of perfectly suddenly there is huge number of people searching of European alternatives and wanting to support them. Without this kind of movement it is hard to say if wider audience could have found the SFOS and C2 even with better specs HW.
I hope that more people will find SFOS as it seems amazing alternative and want to thank all of the people contributing of making SFOS better!
