I agree. Yes, Ubuntu, Fedora, and openSUSE have been the big 3 for a long time, and I doubt they will go away, but Cosmic Desktop is currently the main thing I'm watching for a post-C-dominated-desktop-linux.

Ubuntu is trying to go centralized control with Snap.

Fedora is like a sibling comment says, doing just enough to coast on a desktop.

I'm using openSUSE right now, so can't complain there.

The failure to adopt Inferno in its day showed we as an industry got stuck on the unixy API and we've never managed to advance beyond that to this day.

Edit: trim rant way down.
