> You don’t go to a BBQ place and get mad that it serves meat and demand they start serving vegetarian food.

You might if there were only two restaurants and both were really meaty.

Yes, there are more than 2 phone OS options but nearly the whole of the market is those 2.

Then if there’s a good enough product for it, it’ll gain market share. People act like Apple was just miraculously granted market share over Blackberry and that they didn’t create a competitive product to earn that spot.

Linux phones are currently a subpar product and it’s not because of Apple. The device hardware sucks and the actual use of desktop Linux hammered into a mobile OS is an extremely poor experience even without app compatibility.
