I've used its predecessor the Pro1 with Sailfish OS for 4 weeks. (While having fond memories of using my Nokia Communicator in the past for SSHing into servers to fix things.)
For me, the compromises were not worth it. The phone is too clunky and heavy and virtual keyboards are good enough these days.

There are compromises like I said in previous posts. Frankly I love the physical keyboard not for long form text, but for my terminal operations or just plain old character-by-character cut/copy/paste edits in text. If there were a virtual Ctrl key on my on screen keyboard so I could do Ctrl + V, then maybe I would swap to something else too, but for now this fxtec takes the mobile cake for anything more than a 7 word swype reply to a text.

Good ebought for what, a quick comment on HN?
I made four onscreen errors just typing that first sentence because my fingers weren't perfectly centred on the pretend keys. And look, Gboard has no idea how to correct ebought.
