Developers - Where Next?
 
Open question to all mobile developers and enthusiasts.The fact that you all post here, would suggest you are some way involved in Maemo/Meego. My question for you is the following.

Now that Nokia's efforts into Maemo/Meego are coming close to the end-of-life - what platform are you going to be primarily focusing on?

I understand that some applications can be developed on multiple platforms, please just select the platforms that interest you.

Altho I own a Nokia N9, my first app ever will be on Sailfish OS.. This OS is totally driving me crazy and looks too attractive..

Well,
considering Sailfish will run MeeGo Apps out of the box (apparently), the natural choice (for me at least) is to keep on developing on N9 and then switch to Sailfish as soon as a device surfaces.

Remember that a successful OS needs its own apps, from its own market. Not ported apps..

Indeed - but this is just the general idea, not the details of execution ;)

Sailfish, and that other Mer-based OS, Seadot.

I think:
Ubunt: will be the Microsoft of linux - phone/tablet/PC experience
firefoxOS: will be the Nokia S60 - low end phones
Jolla: iPhone alternative

Re: Developers - Where Next?
 
Well yes and it's missing "Mer" also... that's why I ticked "Meego"

Mozilla should fokus on theyr broken desktop browser that freezes like crazy instead of trying making a mobile OS...
