There is just no reasonable way that the open source community can compete with a $3.8T company. And before you say something along the lines of, "But they don't need to compete, they just need to be good enough", that still requires business to put their apps on some open source app store and make them compatible with the open source OS, and there is close to zero incentive for them to do so.

You've made my point. How many people use Linux as their primary desktop or mobile OS? And that's arguably the world's largest open source project.

		Enough. Linux has finally caught on. I literally never use windows or mac and life has been fine.
