Comment on How long do we have before PCs get locked bootloaders and corporations ban installation of "non-approved" software? (for context: Google is restricting sideloading worldwide on Android ETA 2027)
Sure, but there’s Tuxedo Computers, Framework, the PopOS guys selling PCs and many more. Those won’t go away.
Yeah, but for 99.9% of computer users that doesn’t matter.
They’re getting their hardware from major manufacturers or second hand from people who bought them from major manufacturers.
Which means the negative effects will be felt across the board except for the few people who specifically purchase hardware from niche manufacturers.
