Thanks, it was. I have to admit I pretty much agree with everything he said. I 
don't know much about the development side but as a user this especially 
resonated with me:

"... it was around Christmas 2015. A big part of the momentum seemed to have 
gone away, it had become clear that we would never have full WhatsApp, Twitter 
etc. apps, and you could start to see that not much of “real” importance for 
the many phone users was going forward anymore."

It seemed the same with me. And I have to admit the more I think about it the 
more Mark's claim that the market wasn't there and they didn't make the impact 
they expected annoys me. The phone OS was half finished at best on launch and 
never moved on at all. They launched the phone too soon, with far too many 
problems that were never solved and too few features, then released more phones 
and wondered why the world wasn't amazed.

Still, as a user I felt let down but it seems developers had it a lot worse. I 
hope Canonical learns a lot from this.

Paul.
