That most certainly is not my definition of better. My definition of better is addressing my needs as a user.
- 9dev 1y agoYou conveniently left out in the context of capitalist markets in your quote. The grandparent argued that legal solutions couldn't solve the problem, but the market could by producing a better solution. If that better solution doesn't displace the incumbent, it is by definition not a better solution, because that would—in the context of this question—imply displacing it, hence the market would have solved the problem. So whether Debian is addressing your needs better than Windows bears little relevance for the topic at hand.
- dotancohen 1y agoI quoted as much as I thought necessary to make clear which part of your comment I am referring to. In any case, I think that the term "better" applies for each consumer, therefore the better solution for any specific consumer does not necessarily have to displace the incumbent.
