No friggin way. Only having one user interface is what drove me away from Windows. I'm not alone in my desire to have things my way, and to meddle with everything. Every time someone rolls out a new distro, a new package manager, or just a new DE, Its because someone wasn't satisfied with following someone else's lead. All of us, you, me, the author of that article, Linus, and Stallman, have one unifying trait: "Not satisfied with the menu". Collectively, Linux is never going to be satisfied with any menu. The linux community exists as a perpetual diaspora. It was born from people wandering away from fiat design. The vast disjointed ecosystem happened because of this adventuresome spirit, and its delusion to think that any sort of 'one size should fit all' paradigm is going to quell that. Or that it could be enforced. "The 1FUI will require the backing of a major vendor as champion and enforcer to succeed." I don't know what that author thinks, fifteen years later. I'd tell him that "Fewer options is never a solution to people who went looking for more options". The Linux community has spent 27 years persistently solving a problem: Not enough options. 'One Frickin User Interface' is like trying to make a river flow uphill.
