We may soon have access to all kinds of well-made interoperable or perhaps distributed technology. Even though centralised messaging thrives today and running linux on certain hardware simply sucks.
Making anything interoperable, e.g. an instant messaging server or a linux distribution, takes a team x10, x100 efforts compared to a normal use case. This is why XMPP failed 😂
This pushes me towards a positive thinking model that AI might solve this in future.
