Is Google the only chance we have when it comes to a Linux desktop?

S-Surely hardware companies can get behind a company like Google for an open-source desktop OS that can compete with Windows and OS X, r-right?

Why do you want one? There's already GNU/Linux for desktop use and to compete with Microsoft means having software available to compete with closed source and unrelated programs that just happen to only run on Windows/OSX, which those devs would never do, nor would Google.

The only chance we have when it comes to a Linux desktop is for freetards to stop promoting their shit tier hobby distros and wasting time reinventing the same fucking things 500 times across 500 distros.

Google already has a Linux distro, it's called android

What do they reinvent? There's only like 4 package managers across all of those distros that I can think of. Portage, RPM, dkpg and pacman

>dpkg, rpm, and slapt existed since forever and already heavily divided the near miniscule <1% linux install base
>people still try to make new package managers to this day
