good idea, would you mind rephrasing to "... wheel could be to make use of an open source server management tool" as ajenti is to be licensed

Ajenti is licensed under LGPLv3, unless any of following situations takes place:

• For hosting businesses
• When provided as a part of paid hardware product

@TopStreamsNet late answer here to from me... does it really a nice solution, when jolla want to license their os. i don't think that they would like to pay license to provide this solution too. Jolla want to differentiate itself in compare of other actors, with its own philosophy and design...

@TopStreamsNet because of licensing term ajenti is impossible to be integrated on the sailfish. it may be only port as third part...

@ApB it is a really late answer from me, but it never to late for making things good. sailserver is a tiny server as the developer described, is really reduced on functionalities. the need here is a more powerful solution like airdroid. Furthermore mike7b4 as made no further update or evolutions. maybe he is with the state of the app happy. And has you told, jolla are NOT working on it, that's right. because the interest of the community is currently not so strong on it. But it could be changed. Jolla has a lot of time demonstrate that they are really aware on their community...

Doubt the status on this changed. Jolla is concentrating on SFOS 2 and the Tablet (which BTW will face the same issues). Most (or at least many) of the community people are geeks familiar with ssh and stuff like that so this is probably one of the reasons noone stepped to fill in for jolla.

@ApB and ? what is the problem? jolla bring step per step the functions that are needed. That means it is not a problem that OTA-suites tools are not on foreground. The time will come that OTA-apps becomes the main focus. That don't mean that we don't need to speak about it.
On the contrary, it lets us more time to collect votes for making this function on a higher level. don't you think so?

Don't forget, jolla concentrate itself on the most interesting aspect of the community. Imagine if the vote counter explodes, then could be by review their sprint plans, could be put on a higher priority level. Who can tells, how is made the future.
I think, we don't have to keep in charge the responsibility of the jolla-team-dev, on what they should do, can do. They must do it by themselves, they have their own team leader. otherwise the project goes down on chaos.
Our contribution (of community people) are some of the ideas, the visions, the requests, and needs. And they pick inside, to improve their roadmap on an community oriented one.
If we limit us on what we could imagine that is their restrictions. Then we loose a lot on creativity, and velocity, and ideas.
Do you see what i mean?

The problem is that the User experience is lacking. The phone is not/shouldn't be geek only.

I don't think so. And i don't understand why you tell this. could you bring some concrete argument? please

KDE connect works on what, KDE (or even just Plasma?)? This question is about a standalone solution not wired to some OS or even to a WM.

I works in any DE, you could easily port it to Windows as the KF5 realy (KDE 4 runs on Windows too but KF5 makes it easyer).

"If" you want to install KDE runtimes to you system, does it work on a Mac or Android or iOS?

KDE connect has currently only a Android app , there's just need for an Sailfish app which would work mostly , I think the noifications system may be an issue if Sailfish ist too limeted (but this would be an issue too if you write your own solution). You don't need to install KDE on your system just the parts that are needed by it, this is much easyer when it's ported to KF5/Qt5 , where KDE aka KF5 is just an QT Addons just like Silicia on Sailfish. Using KDE or KF5 apps works on OS X, I think iOS would a problem as its very strickt but could work.

"it is easy to port" is a no for that matter
