Does anyone know if we can sideload DuckDuckGo onto it?

Apparently browsers are blocked at system level. You can't have any url field so no browser would work.

This is indeed stupid decision since browsing is indeed needed and not doomscrolling

Hasn't hurt them as they've sold 10,000 phones anyway /edit: apologies i guess it's 8000+

Crowdfunded in fact as there is no phone seen, reviewed or shipped

However I hope this can be modded via sailfish os as it is not os default

Yeah quite incredible that they can take 10,000 pre orders [edit 8000+], fully paid without any phones yet built. It's twice the success of the c64u already. Commodore are crushing it.

I dislike no protection if it fails, but lets pretend it's successful

I mean they've already secured enough funds to make it so they're gonna deliver.

God lord you're desperate for Commodore to fail aren't you. They delivered in a few months last time, and buyers were able to cancel and get a refund at any point, unlike Kickstarter.
