    What good does a good code base do when it cant run popular games and apps like cod, valorant, siege, league of legends, destiny, adobe apps etc? On windows everything just works even though it is not transparent or open source.

      Your windows cant run your android app, IOS app and just doesnt work at all. Hell, I just want to play God of War Ragnarök… Stupid OS. Costs so much and doesnt even run the games and apps I need.

      I hope you see yourself how foolish your agument is. “Perfect” doesn’t describe how many apps you currently want to use or love, can run. Especially when this piece of software is deeply hardcoded into an Environment or OS. Even a game developed on Windows may fail to run because the environment is off. You will be very wrong with the statement that “everything just works on Windows” when you will soon buy a specific piece of hardware to start an app because otherwise, it wont trust you.

      The topic is about a Perfect OS. Philoshophy of why it may count as Perfect. OpenBSD is an important play here as Microsofts steals its apps for its own convience like ssh and many other standards in Server use. Or the idea of an OS that knows where everything is located and can fully automate itself, etc.

      Thr developers of the games choose themselves when an app will run and when not. Or where on which platform. It is out of topic to mention that something is only perfect when you can run your my little pony game.
