I would much rather European companies ported their applications and services to a non-Google/non-ASOP platform. Having native e-government and applications would be a solid addition to make something like Sailfish OS more usable.

This is one area where European and Asian countries are way ahead of the US, things like e-govermernt (parts of Europe), simple and no/very low fee mobile payment systems (parts of Europe, India's UPI system).
