    I love Linux, but I never expect it to be mainstream or even extremely accessible to typical users

    It already is mainstream. You probably own 10 times as many computers running Linux than Windows without even knowing it.

    Desktop computers are a just a tiny part of the market.

    it’d probably get ruined somehow by corporate interference, monetization, etc.

    Yeah, it did. It’s called Android.

      Aren’t there Android versions that don’t have all the Google things and are open source? (GrapheneOS and LineageOS) If you’re just talking about your average android I’m afraid I agree and am an offender myself. (I hope to change that one day though)
