Which is a funny thing to say because creators are results focused and not technology focused, so the likelihood that they would install this system is practically zero compared to ie consumers, who can still browse the web or watch movies without the big AAAA software suites.
> creators are results focused and not technology focused
When the technology gets in the way of the results there might be an incentive to switch.
I consider myself results-focused and use the best tool for the job without major ideological concerns (I'm fine with paying for proprietary software, etc) and used macOS for the past 5 years and Windows before that.
I originally switched away from Linux once I no longer had the time to tinker around, wanted things to "just work" and could afford to pay for the experience. I went to Windows 7 at the time.
When Microsoft decided that wasting the user's time is their new business model with Windows 8 and later, I switched to Mac, where at the time Apple was still happy to respect me and get out of my way provided I paid them money every so often (in the form of buying new machines - which I was more than happy to do so as it was worth it and I didn't really have a choice - Windows was no longer a viable alternative).
This has now changed. These premium-priced machines now come with a toy-like OS (new Big Sur UI that wastes space, and WTF is this new tab bar in Safari 15?) designed to nag you into consuming Apple services (poor-quality ones at that) rather than producing. They seem to have gone the same way Microsoft went.
At this point there's no other competitor to switch to, so this project might actually have some value.
Maybe, but there are 300 Linux distros plus Chromebooks for people who just want a web kiosk that can play movies. And saying something is focused on developers conjures images of desktops acting as a fancy tmux.
