> How do you imagine the real world works?
The way it works. It's not me complaining about "Free market doesn’t work that way."
> Because once a few gets big enough, they can control the whole market.
Yes, yes they will.
So what is, exactly, the nature of your complaint?
- kaba0 6y ago> Literally nothing prevents any of the current players in the "non-free market" to develop their own phone. Heck, Microsoft even tried to do it. Literally, the already existing 2 platforms prevent a new one from emerging —- thus it is incorrect to say that the free market will solve the issue.
- suifbwish 6y agoAnyone can launch a new phone with its own hardware and OS and a marketplace. It just takes a lot of money that most people don’t have. I think what you are really complaining about is not enough people have the money to launch a new phone
- kaba0 6y agoAnyone can launch a new phone, but even one of the richest company failed, even when they paid for app developers to create apps?
- dmitriid 6y ago> thus it is incorrect to say that the free market will solve the issue. Are you arguing with yourself now? This is your text (emphasis mine): "And frankly, there will not be more mobile platforms because even the current two is already much for companies to develop for. Free market doesn’t work that way."
