> Yeah dude platform-layer stuff would need to be native. But literally all those things are platforms on top of another platform. They're not applications and we're talking about applications.

Wait what? Since when is stuff like Blender, VLC, Photoshop, Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premier, DaVinci Resolve, etc not applications?

Yes I did list browsers too but they are applications too. Someone has to develop them and fix all the platform specific issues.

So basically now you added a modifier "if you develop open source software then just use linux desktop".

Yeah but for the next 10 to 15 years at least we for sure will have Windows around as the dominant native desktop platform. Or are you saying 2024 is finally the "year of Linux desktop"?
