Linux doesnt “force” chip makers. It tries to collaborate , that’s the point of what Linus has been saying and doing for several years.
I don’t know which market you’re talking about though, embedded - which is relevant here, or consumer PC.
I don’t even think MS gives a shit about consumer PC, it’s worth next to nothing to anyone - maybe apple does.
Linux would need overwhelming market share in the consumer end to force chip makers to play, whether they like it or not.
Windows might be finally doing a bad enough job again, to drive Linux adoption, but it’s hard to tell if that’s just Lemmy talking.

Force is the wrong word, I meant more difficult to ignore.
