Many people have no need of such special applications.

Also, as the years progress, more and more applications become
browser-based, making it less and less important what OS is being
used.

Linux's desktop have come into their own. There
are several that are very well done and much better
than Windows 10. Linux need to concentrate on taking
over the install base of software.


The Linux community is already doing what it should be doing.

Obviously, it would be ridiculous to suggest that they could keep-up,
in applications, with the 40X larger Windows ecosystem.
