People keep telling me Linux "just works" now. I bought a System76 laptop with PopOS preinstalled. On the first day of use, third time I wake it from suspend, the lock screen has gone crazy buggy ... there are many instances of it at different levels of slide-upness, covering

Very easy to imagine from a technical perspective. Not sure the economics are there. Why do the windows drivers for laptop hardware work better? Why does macOS have less catastrophic failures like your unlock problem? Because of the money spent testing and fixing everything.

It’s not subject to the whims of a single corporation that owns it. But it’s somehow immune to the ideological stalemates that plague OSS projects. It’s up to date with (near infinite) evolving standards, but somehow not prone to bloat. Getting the OS software right is 1% of it.

Sure, you can picture it. But you have to picture a lot of externalities like: the OS is popular enough to attract hw vendor support. But somehow resistant to hw vendor’s tendency to sell users out. It’s open enough for a healthy sw ecosystem, but somehow resistant to shovelware.

You don't think if a new hypothetical better OS / platform came out that Microsoft/Apple wouldn't pay fortunes to keep certain software exclusive? I mean the only reason I still run Windows is for games + Photoshop (for work). I don't need it for anything else.

this plus your eventual compiler public release smells vaguely like foreshadowing
