You don't need to implement every nut and bolt in the application. Lot's of useful things can do the heavy lifting (Pipewire, ffmpeg, libplacebo, Mesa and so on). Linux isn't after calling it all using some uniform "DirectFoo" naming scheme, but tools are there.

Comparison is also invalid. Linux as a whole (not the kernel but OS experience) isn't controlled by some Big Brother who decides what and how it's done single mindedly. So such kind of composite result is somewhat expected.

Hence why it will never be embraced by desktop application developers, and Electron it is.

Yeah, keep complaining about everything not being proprietary enough, while everyone who needs just makes it work (OBS, mpv, etc.).

Those 2% will appreciate their efforts.

[shmerl]

Those who use it appreciate their efforts. You aren't using it, why are you even complaining especially with complete nonsense comments. Anti Linux shilling should be getting old.

Unfortunely I still have to, from time to time.

Luckly Android, ChromeOS and WebOS as proper Linux distributions have replaced most of it.

Android hasn't displaced Linux on phones, there wasn't any.

ChromeOS hasn't displaced Linux on school laptops, there wasn't any.

LG WebOS hasn't displaced "Linux", it competes with Google TV (formerly Android TV)

Stop wasting everyone's time.

Considering how user hostile most app developers are, I don't miss them.
