- openrisk 2y agoTo the degree the phrase "a supercomputer in your pocket" stops being an empty marketing term and reflects real empowerment of users I would expect Linux to get ever more exposed to mass markets. But this development is predicated on non-technical users somehow becoming aware and valuing the agency and empowerment that a FOSS personal computing environment affords them.
- BlueTemplar 2y agoThese days the smartphone is the (very) Personal Computer for a lot of people. Remember how Android is technically Linux ? The risk here is for SteamOS to go the Android way... but I have more faith in today's Valve than in Google of a ~decade ago. At least for now, while Valve is still a private company and Gabe Newell is still leading it and still seems to be in good health and sound mind. Sadly, this will probably only last for a couple of decades at best, but hopefully this is all the time that Linux (and libre software in general) needs.
