It’s also absurdly lacking in features compared to Android/iOS (never mind app support) and the dev team is so small they can barely maintain existing device support. VoLTE is still unsupported in the majority of devices. The OS doesn’t even have basic security features like drive encryption

I like UBPorts a lot but I think the alternative/FOSS smartphone market is too fragmented between it and SailfishOS/PostMarketOS that none of them will emerge with enough adoption to be real competitors to the iOS/Android duopoly. Didn’t mean to be overly negative. Just my two cents

This is the real problem. As more and more countries push for laws like this I think sites will just adopt blanket age-verification for simplicity’s sake instead of having to constantly keep track of which countries/states in countries require it
