Just because you don’t like the options on the market doesn’t mean they don’t exist. That’s life. You don’t get to force other people into developing something

Just because you don’t like the options on the market doesn’t mean they don’t exist. That’s life. You don’t get to force other people into developing something that perfectly fits your desires.
For the record, the Librem 5 does indeed support many of those apps via Anbox.
- meheleventyone 6y agoNo ones talking about forcing anyone to develop any thing. We also need to stop talking about individual purchasing decisions as if they represent the broader market. The point is not that there are zero competitors in a monopolised market. It’s that those competitors suffer at the will of the monopoly and cannot bring viable competing products to market. Hence all the competitors outside of the big two in the mobile space having effectively zero market share combined. Far from forcing people to develop something anti-trust is design to increase competition by opening up the market. Offering more people the opportunity to build the innovative things they want and consumers the ability to choose. As we saw with the results in this happening to MS it works reasonably well.
- zaptheimpaler 6y agoI didn’t say anything about forcing people to develop anything.. and yeah that’s life without legislation, but with the right laws it doesn’t have to be.
