hello, your program is amazing and i use it often! thank you so much for it.

i notice myself drifting away from sailfish to other mobile linux operating systems, like postmarketos, manjaro and maemo-leste.

i'd like to build your program there, but it has sailfish specific components dependencies.

would you release a version which can be run just under any linux?

The quick answer is "no".

UI is pretty much always platform specific. For example, I've been maintaining Lines for Sailfish OS and MeeGo Harmattan (Nokia N9). It was easy enough to conditionally compile the native code (Qt 4.x vs 5.x) but most of the QML code had to be re-implemented. Not to mention that N9 was Debian based and Sailfish OS is rpm based.

When and if I have a phone with a different Linux/Qt/QML based system running on it, I'll probably port my apps to that platform. But there's no such platform as "any Linux". Unfortunately.
