Give it a few more years and Linux will complete its inevitable evolution into Microsoft, same consolidation, same gatekeeping, just with better slogans and a smug sense of moral superiority.

How is this possible? I don't think you quite understand what "Linux" is.

There is no corporation, board, or CEO to force unwanted changes. Pretty much every piece of the operating system is free and open source.

If you don't like your "Linux", you can swap it out for another distribution or "distro".

That is highly unlikely.
