> Linux on the desktop is a valid choice, but as I said above, don't tell me to switch to it, it's just not practical in my life.
For Desktop, if I have to choose between macOS CSAM spyware of paying users or the Linux ecosystem and its tiny userbase of unpaid users I would go for using and targeting the paid users since they are the ones paying the bills and thats where the money is.
For smartphone alternatives, the phones themselves are still immature as well as the Linux phone software ecosystem which is again still light years behind. If they can't even run the same Android apps on modern Android devices, then it is close to no chance.
If they don't hurry up, Google Fuchsia will steam-roll them silently.
> I've tried over a dozen distributions since 2011 and probably over fifty releases of them, and Linux isn't there.
Likewise, with the GUI software I'm writing, 'Defining Linux support' is something that is not worth doing given that there are tons of distros out there and by selecting one or two distro's there will always be an endless amount of people asking to support X distro or Y distro.
