Just read another “forget desktop Linux” piece by a writer trying to cover Free software on a sight ostensibly doing the same. This is exactly the sort of thing I wrote about in a recent blog entry, and it’s sad to see it continue.
First off, “world domination” is not the only metric, nor the most useful one in every case. We have tens of millions of users around the world and I’m sure they’d appreciate it if we didn’t forget them. I am one of them, and I know I certainly feel that way. You may be as well.
There’s another aspect to that article: it suggests concentrating on mobile. Now .. where have I heard that before? Oh, right: everyone saying the desktop is dead, long live the web, we should focus all our efforts there.
