Well, if GNOME, KDE, and freedesktop guys are still convinced that
they have any chance to scratch the shares of Android and iOS on
mobles, then they might have somehow lost contact with reality. This
is why all the systemd-fuss looks incredibly stupid to my ignorant
eyes: four years of fighting to conquer a "market" that has never
existed, and will probably never exist...
The market they want is the one the Macbooks currently dominate, which
may be regarded as constituting about 20% of the general tablet/laptop
usage in the coming decade or so. (The number depends on how you count
and what you count, but all that's offtopic here.)
The other 80% are solidly held by android and ios, but 20% isn't zer.
Katolaz, don't you recall how many times we've read about "The year
of the Linux Desktop", which never happened? And don't you remember
Gnome 3 made the desktop look like a tablet?
Gnome tries to build a desktop for the general public which would
be based on Systemd-Linux, but I'm afraid this ship is going to sink
while hunting a white whale. Thanks to Devuan, we're jumping to another
ship and will watch the wreck from a distance.
That said, I admit they have arguments for everybody, and the
market of servers would help them a lot in gaining domination over Linux.
