A mono-topic patroncast this week, as I discuss why I think the market share of Linux on the desktop is irrelevant, until we can actually be a viable platform for developers and paid applications, which we are not right now.
So, we'll talk about packaging formats, app stores, platforms, subsystems, ChromeOS and how it demonstrates market share doesn't matter, and more!
I hope you'll enjoy listening to it, and have a great week!
