"World domination shouldn't be goal for Linux." World domination isn't the goal for Linux. Linux and FOSS are about increasing the users rights to use software in a nonrestrictive way that benefits everyone. The phenomena that is the community is what has evolved Open Source into a better product. Propaganda and the lack of driver support from the proprietary community is what harms Linux the most. The goal should be to allow everyone a fair chance to use whatever operating system they want. If this could be accomplished, desktop Linux world domination would probably follow naturally; It already has for servers.
