I’m not proposing anything here, I’m curious what you all think of the future.

What is your vision for what you want Linux to be?

I often read about wanting a smooth desktop experience like on MacOS, or having all the hardware and applications supported like Windows, or the convenience of Google products (mail, cloud storage, docs), etc.

A few years ago people were talking about convergence of phone/desktop, i.e. you plug your phone into a big screen and keyboard and it’s now your desktop computer. That’s one vision. ChromeOS has its “everything is in the cloud” vision. Stallman has his vision where no matter what it is, the most important part is that it’s free software.

If you could decide the future of personal computing, what would it be?

    The less computer-literate users stick to phones nowadays and they’re mostly content consumers on that platform

    I think this is a bad thing

      I mean, they’d be consumers on any device they used. Streaming/social/email/browsing that’s pretty much it.

      It’s definitely bad for kids who aren’t exposed to PCs anymore.
