Towards European open digital ecosystems

Hey, the topic here is Towards European open digital ecosystems(*). The debate over Jollas audience, daily drivers, apk format benefits etc are all worthwile, but can we have them in some other threads, please?

edit (*) Specifically the European Commission’s call for input on the matter.

This just isn’t true, even approximately. There has been government institution FOSS Android apps at least since Covid. And I’m pretty sure many earlier apps are FOSS, too. And Android’s first release was 2008.

And if you move away from Android I know for a fact that much older examples exist.

Back on the ignore list with you.

This was first time for me to ‘have my say’ with EU. Send them message :slight_smile:

Very interesting article on The Register, might be a golden opportunity for Jolla/SFOS to move to the mainstream and get serious loads of EU money.

This would open up currently unthinkable things, like actually challenging Android/iOS in the EU or getting SFOS-native apps for banking or whatever from EU companies and institutions.
