It's the same everywhere. We are now stuck in the world where the formula is of A or B.

Android vs Apple

Intel vs AMD

Sony vs Nintendo

Microsoft vs Linux

Firefox vs Chrome

For any technology that has a third party has a very little mindshare.

Not only does this make innovation hard. How? When only the same two contenders continue to dominate the market and have newr-infinite resources.
