I use GrapheneOS on Pixel phone/tablet in parallel with Apple phone/tablet/laptop, in addition to Linux on x86 and Arm devices, with ongoing dev work to implement some Apple-equivalent functionality in non-Apple ecosystems. Ecosystem network effects means that each platform has strengths and weaknesses, for specific use cases, adding operational cost of 2X devices with data sync overhead.
Linux roadmaps are now funded and entangled with the commercial goals of large companies like IBM, Google and Microsoft. The decline of commercial operating systems is not the same as the improvement of FOSS, which continues steadily but slowly at the grassroots level. Customers need to _both_ invest in FOSS and lobby regulators/vendors to improve commercial software.
