I disagree. The fact that Linux powers Android, or that BSD powers MacOS (not really*), or that Playstations run on FreeBSD are meaningless, because all of those are closed platforms. When people want "the year of Linux on the desktop" they aren't thinking about "A locked-down experience where you have to root your device to get a terminal prompt". So why should that count for anything on mobile or on game consoles? * - MacOS does not have a "BSD heart" in it nor is XNU based on BSD (other than they might have evolved it out of a BSD codebase they had lying around, gutted 99% of it and wrote in a rewrite of OSF Mach).
