I need a real operating system to do real work on my phone. I am also a hobbyist developer, and Ubuntu has a more mature, serious developer ecosystem. Need ideas or suggestions on how to install Ubuntu Phone OS on a Jolla.
Thanks!

If you were a REAL developer, you'd know that you can't just "install" an operation system on any hardware. Furthermore your question is a duplicate of https://together.jolla.com/question/81218/ubuntu-phone-on-jolla/
While I usually stick to the saying "don't feed the troll", I suggest you buy one of the availabe Ubuntu phone devices or get a device which works with the Ubuntu flash-installer: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices
Good luck and I look forward to see and try your future real apps on my 2nd device, running Ubuntu phone.

What can you do with Ubuntu Phone that you can't with Sailfish? I'm just curious, intention is not start a mobile distoro war, I just want to know where Ubunu Phone is ahead of Sailfish. As a answer to your question: as far is I know it is not (easily) possible to install any other OS to Jolla.
