I’m sure Unity would prefer a revshare it’s just that it would be much harder and more expensive for them to enforce it (and even impossible at all outside of the developed countries and especially in China). And yeah, of course there would

Framework doesn’t even sell their laptops with Linux pre installed. How are they even that much better than Dell for instance in this regard?

That doesn’t include R&D & marketing costs which make them unprofitable overall. I guess they are betting that R&D costs are fixed(ish) or at least will grow slower than revenue. Which of course doesn’t always work, especially o
