I'm talking about every new commercial software offering. Anything for editing videos. Probably blender. Anything that uses a GPU will have limited legacy support. Every game. Anything for architecture or engineering (OSS here is not so good, possible exception of electronics CAD).
I used 2 copies of the same phone for 4 years with open + closed source android -- the open source worked perfectly but had no commercial apps, the google android degraded on an upgrade cadence but had commercial offerings
I say this as someone who uses linux as my primary desktop, hates every moment on a commercial OS, and interacts with OSS for ethical reasons -- the economy is not building for it. Many hands make light work, and there are more hands in commercial software.
