Their UI/UX might be "nice" but the rest sucks. I've been using this since Jolla 1 and they're getting worse and worse, being extremely behind on basics such as up to date browser.

As a dev: proper store support for paid apps, fixing their own bugs like say the inability to use VOIP in a native app due to broken audio routing ("might get fixed in the next release, but probably not coz we busy with corporate features").
Generally Jolla has sailed their own ship to a tornado at least 3 times in a row now. First by screwing with the tablet/production, then by lying about going OSS and refusing to open up so people can fix their bugs in pretty much every app and lastly by concentrating on corporate/carrier things instead of the basics in order to appease "would be" investors from the east (it ain't gonna work).
I'm pretty sure most app devs will jump ship as soon as there's any half-assed alternative. Most have already abandoned developing their apps long ago.

They never finalized the market/store and most devs fled the ship. I myself am in maintenance mode waiting for Librem or another good alternative to Android/iPhone.
As for librem, well they haven't delivered anything yet and appear to be focused on the cell phone industry.
