I was looking at iodé several times in the past and I don't know why but it doesn't click with me. Maybe I will check it out again, but I somehow don't trust it 😀 Maybe its the way they present themselves, if you look at the pages it looks like some company that is just trying to sell me stuff 😀 (well they actually do, one of the first things is "buy an iodé phone").
Indeed, they sell phones with their OS preinstalled, but they also offer an open source OS for free for anyone to download an install. In the end they need some income, and I'd rather they sell phones (saving the user the trouble of installing another OS on their phones) than do it through ads or other ways that offer no value for a user.
