  • It got so big so fast. You’re absolutely right. The movie Antitrust (basically a david/goliath allegory between FOSS and Microsoft) came out in 2001! Linux and FOSS had become mainstream enough to end up in a hollywood movie where even the onscreen time of the computers showed legit shells and stuff. Now Linux literally runs on billions of devices, and powers the backend of a majority of companies. Even Microsoft did a 180(-ish) and maintain their own distro for their cloud shit, made .net cross platform to run on Linux, etc.
