If someone ever did make a really good desktop/window manager/whatever for linux it would just create another SystemD type controversy where the community eats itself alive in a bizarre reaction to actual improvement.

it already happened the good window manager is called gnome 3 really though the modern term is "desktop environment"

lmao remember when VLC first came out for iphone and they had to take it down because using GPL code with any kind of drm was a violation of the license FREEDOM (of our users from being able to use our software)

i literally do think that microsoft opted for the ubuntu collaboration on the windows subsystem for linux because they too realize that ubuntu is sort of poo poo, and it helps no real competitor in any real way when they implement it

Linux subsystem for windows is a bizarre side project where Microsoft wanted to see if they could make windows posix compliant for no other reason than to have the best posix compliant os. nobody anywhere needs or wants posix, but they're doing it anyways
