How relevant is Android support version 4.4.4?
I'm sure this has been discussed elsewhere, but I don't immediately find a thread concerning this.
The Android app support / Alien Dalvik on Sailfish X corresponds to Android version 4.4.4 (KitKat), right? How relevant is this version today in terms of application support? What apps are not supported in 4.4.4? In what time frame do you think this Android support version will be too outdated to use practically? This of course depends on what Android apps you want or need to use. I know that if Android app support is the most important feature, one is perhaps better off with an actual Android phone. But I'm interested in hearing different views on this matter.

Clarification: I'm not asking how relevant the Android support is as such. I'm interested in how relevant version 4.4.4 is in comparison to newer versions.
