How is slimKat? Is it comparable to stock in stability?
As is it can't run android apps by default because Jolla is using a licensed runtime. There is an open source runtime that can be installed via the community repositories. I haven't tried it yet though
I like sailfish because it is true GNU/Linux (it uses RPM packages) so normal Linux software can be ran on it.
The UI is amazing because it can be used fully on handed and has better multitasking than any other os. The home screen show all running software and allows you to interact with it at a glance.
After I installed the alpha on my phone I like it enough to back Jolla's tablet on Kickstarter.
Right now the Nexus 5 and other images are community based with input from Jolla. The latest alpha (released less than a month ago) has some bugs with networking and the camera but should be smoothed out soon.
Because Sailfish, Ubuntu touch and Blackberry all use QT as their framework porting should be easy. And it seems that android compatibility is pretty standard now, all the OSs I mentioned have it.
The only issue I've had is music will freeze occasionally if the track skips on its own. Skipping the track forward or back to restart temporarily resolves the issue. Hasn't bugged me enough to look into a more permanent solution. I haven't used the stock software to make any sort of comparison though.
Xiaomi Mi2s 32GB with the extended 3100MAh battery. Running MIUI V5 stock stable version. My best and cheapest phone ever.
Woah, I just looked at Sailfish, it looks really cool! I'm definitely going to check it out, does it work with multi-boot?
Nokia Lumia 1020
sharp aquos, 4gb of storage so yeah...... i need a micro sd card.
If your phone supports multirom then yes.
I had no idea they had a build for the Nexus 5, could you link us to it? in fact.. is this it ? https://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Adaptations/libhybris/Install_SailfishOS_for_hammerhead
Looks like your required to be on android 4 (cm11)
I have an LG G3 running CM 12 nightly. I also have a Nexus 5, which I guess is a backup..
Stock Nexus 5 as my daily driver and just ordered a Blackberry Classic as my new phone for work.

There have been some request for Sailfish on Nexus devices.
If you like custom roms, tools, kernels, and operating systems you should be on XDA it really a cool site.
One M8 with the stock ROM. It's been running fine and smooth out of the box, I have no reason to chuck a custom ROM on it.
HTC are apparently pushing out 5.0 to unlocked devices Checks for updates every 5 minutes
Samsung Galaxy Note II. 4.4.2, I really should update to 4.4.4. Omni ROM with Devil 2 kernal. Xposed modules for some other functionality. Over clocked the CPU to 1.8ghz from 1.6 and the GPU to 666 mhz from 533 all while undervolting a little.
Software side. I have apex launcher running the 9 home screens each with a 9x12 layout and resizable widgets. A couple of handy things like pushbullet, unified remote, N7 Player for my music and sixaxis controller for my PS3 controller. Quite a few games and emulators but I have run out of space, 10gb does not go far. And a 64gb SD card for my music and emulated games.
I think that is it. Oh TWRP for Recovery. It all stays fast with the OC and can happily last a full day of use with the UV, two days of light use.
I'm currently using the 2013 Moto X. Great phone, although I've yet to get it to crash or bug out. Shame I like doing that with handhelds. As for a custom ROM it has one from the company so I can't change it willy nilly. It's form Republic Wireless $25/m for unlimited talk, data, text. Pretty good since I use a lot of data. Overall I'm pretty happy with the Moto X and the Android OS. 4.4.4 currently.
Currently still on my old Asus Padfone (First Gen), running Jelly Bean. Angry about lack of updates, but it still runs nicely. Broke the tablet station, so stuck with "phone only". After a particularly bad fall, the GSM antenna broke, and the cell reception went down by 50%. That made me use it mainly as a quick wifi-only browser, with and old S40 Nokia acting as my main phone. Waiting for Ubuntu on phones, buying one few months after they start selling.
Droid mini. I've got quiet a while left before I upgrade next on contract but hey, when I do upgrade snapdragon 810 should be on the loose :P
Moto X 2nd Gen love it best phone I've owned.
