It sadly does feel like the pursuit of ideological/political purity, while admirable and good, has left us in a place with no practical ways forward towards actually converging into a single "best" system.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 9y agoAt least in Linux's case, there isn't really much desire to converge into a single "best" system. Partly because "best" is somewhat subjective, but also because the kind of person who cares enough about open source to put that kind of effort into it is already pretty far on one side of the ideology/practicality divide. And that's before the parties interested in monetization get involved.
