My usage patterns are pretty much similar to what @pichlo has, and in addition to the essentials like browser, email, calendar and bash shell I have just a few important requirements;
  • I need GPS tracking for my exercises and tracking my dog-with-GPS-collar
  • working-hour tracker
  • music; nettiradio and cutespotify
That's it, all my needs very well covered with SFOS.

All in all I strongly detest all kind of social mediocre apps and generally think people would rather be happier without.
I am not claiming that Sailfish is for everyone, instead I would offer that in fact most people would be best server with a featurephone.
