    @pino It ridiculous to suggest that the billions of people in the Android ecosystem aren't worth fighting for, esp. because you're riding in on your white horse offering a mishmash of completely different UIs and package formats all called "Linux".

    (but, I mean, why not - APIs for Android application development aren't Linux-specific).

    ...yeah, whoops! The UI and API are what's more important to users, and those have already been forked by the community.

    Speaking of whoops, here's a chart for you (we've been here before...)

    #byelinux

    Chart by Statcounter showing desktop market share with the Linux "bump" subsiding and Windows numbers rebounding.

    @tasket Well, you started a discussion about Linux here. I don't even get the point that you are trying to make tbh. For me it's absolutely fine if you dislike Linux. I explicitly tell people to stay where they are, all the time. I don't need the masses being on Linux at all. But again, you came up with Linux!

    (I don't see a #byelinux in your chart though. Even not if it wouldn't be a silly one year time range)
