Turing Phone Drops Android for Sailfish OS
This just in...
'Turing Phone' has filed for bankruptcy following a terrible decision to use a little known mobile OS platform called Sailfish...
...
If this company was viable, and not just a few phones sent out to some crowdfunding people, it probably have been good. Sure the looks of the turing are real nice, but it also using near two year old tech. I wouldn't mind using SailOS, but not on a niche product with little chance of viablity.

I would argue that anything running Sailfish OS is by definition going to be "a niche product with little chance of viab[i]lity." And though I feel the same way you do, it's really a shame because I am quite sick of Android, and iOS isn't even a consideration. This obstinate opinion that we both share is the very sentiment that will make it difficult, if not impossible, for viable alternatives to enter the market.
