but community driven FOSS is made mostly by people building something they themselves want...

Exactly. That is how FOSS solutions appear. If you want something specifically produced, you have exactly two choices: a) you and your mates produce it yourselves at no charge or b)pay somebody to do it for you.

If you're paying somebody to do it for you, you're in effect purchasing commercial software that is made for profit. So you might as well lobby/pay/blackmail Microsoft for that 'extra something' to appear in the next version of Windows.

Using Linux is a personal choice. Nobody is ever forced to use Linux. So it's pointless ranting about Linux. If you don't like something, fix it yourself. Or use Windows like those others happily do.
