The case for *total* Linux victory (desktop, mobile, server, iot, robots, embedded…):
1) Most agent-programmable
People will want fully personalized computing experiences. macOS makes it hard to even ship a tiny app to your menubar.
2) Open source training data
Blender beats all its competitors because it's optimal in the most important dimension: agents can train on it and use it efficiently. OSS wins.
3) Design being democratized
macOS has historically had a 'monopoly' on beautiful OS design. The global design community is now huge, they're motivated, they have tokens.
4) Computing moving to cloud sandboxes
More and more of our personal and professional computing experiences will come from agents that orchestrate work in the cloud, using sandboxes. Those sandboxes will be Linux. Bonus: seamless continuum between local & remote
5) Security
Every piece of software is now at major risk, Linux included. But Linux has the collective investment of everyone on the planet throwing tokens at it.
