Hopefully.

We don't need another 90% marketshare OS.  
We need 10+ 10-% marketshare OSes.

We need "biodiversity" in operating systems, to increase the
resilience of Internet and the research and progress in OS and software.

What's bad with Microsoft is not Microsoft in itself, it's the
monoculture whole countries do in it.

It would be almost as bad if the monoculture was in Linux.
