    We can only hope. The Steamdeck is definitely making huge strides in Linux market penetration. I’m worried that companies like Microsoft and Google will be able to force their way through sheer inertia and apathy and forced updates.

      I’m worried that companies like Microsoft and Google

      The days of windows dominance are long, long gone.

      If MS were unable to to this 20 years ago when they were at the hight of their power they have zero hope now.

      Same with google. They are an advertising company that has been masquerading as a tech firm for the last 15 years.
