in a way, i have moved these on a meta level too.. doing stuff (software or hardware or soulware) so *others* have fun. Or better, take others learn howto do this. Esp. if they do not notice my participation. Now that's meta-fun :)

sounds like the bitter-lesson on a meta level - discarding not only the way humans represent knowledge, but also the way humans store/collect/look-for knowledge..
in ~2005 i lead a team to build horse-betting terminals for Singapore, and there server could only understand CORBA. So.. i modelled the needed protocol in python, which generated a set of specific python files - one per domain - which then generated the needed C folders-of-files. Like 500 lines of models -> 5000 lines 2nd level -> 50000 lines C at bottom. Never read that (once the pattern was established and working).
But - but - it was 1000% controllable and repeatable. Unlike current fancy "generators"..
That's not what was implied by that comment, at least the way I read it. You mention the CEO did the same thing. If the CEO is pushing AI and the employees feel like their job is at risk if they resist change, then they are going to use AI as a means of self-preservation.
The portions of SailfishOS specific to it including the user interface and application layer are nearly entirely closed source, unlike the open source Android Open Source Project (AOSP). SailfishOS has far worse privacy, security, functionality and usability than the Android Open Source Project. It isn't possible to make a fork improving it due to it not being open source like AOSP.
You can run desktop apps on GrapheneOS including on a desktop monitor via the desktop mode with free form windows. There's support for non-native apps via hardware-based virtualization. These features are experimental but already work pretty well.
There's a new Jolla Phone in pre-marketing phase right now (almost 9000 phones have been pre-ordered so far). First device deliveries are scheduled for this summer and this should easily be the new benchmark for officially supported SailfishOS devices.
The situation with Sony Xperia devices is not great, the best experience is still on the X10III (from 2021 I think) and there are significant issues with the support of 10 IV and V generation devices (a free beta release is available for those as well).
It seems that recently there has been quite a lot of buzz in the Sailfish community compared to the past few years. In the public repos there are some interesting contributions like xdg-shell support for Lipstick, which looks set to enable compiling many previously unavailable Linux apps natively if that will actually be integrated in an upcoming OS version.
Jolla mishandled the funds they got for the tablets, it went bankrupt and bought up by a company connected to the Russian state. Jolla lied a lot during these events and tried to hide what happened, and I don't think that's an acceptable thing to do when the main selling point of your product is privacy and trust. AFAIK they recently got bankrupted again and bought by the original owners, but it's hard to rebuild trust.

yep. When everyone and their dog tells LLM to generate stuff in whatever way LLM knows best, not bothering even reading the output, any new thing is doomed into invisibility and oblivion. So no need of new tool/language-like-things anymore.
Unless someone pickpoints some XYZ and makes artificial ecosystem around it and feeds that into training-next-LLM. Which isn't happening without a major (possibly adversarial) need.
Or, wait until next wave of AI (6th? 8th?) actually combines analytical with generative, making context part of the training, and looping over those..
