Sad story. Best OS I ever run was around 2002 NetBSD on a desktop. It is quite bad that Linux is the only viable player for an operating system on desktops/laptops. (With viable I mean has drivers for all of my my hardware and runs the software I need for personal and professional life.)

It's amazing. No fragmentation means more standardization. And Linux is Open Source.

That's not really true. Without some fragmentation there is no need for standards

Linux already has a ton of distros. Supporting an entirely different OS is far more of a hassle for developers than releasing a deb snap or flatpak.
