Yes. Open standards always win, given time. No one keeps paying for a closed standard, once the open (free!) one is just as good.

Like Gimp? Oh, wait that didn’t take over. Well, at least Libreoffice is the standard office suite today, oh wait, that didn’t take over. Well, Linux is the most used operating system at least. Whoops, except Android counts as that and it’s increasingly locked down.
