I wasn’t arguing everything be thrown out, just that a competent group be put in charge, and also that they open the HW up so there is competition on the SW side.

If you put third party support under macos leadership or next to it on the org chart, it’d be systematically sabotaged to death. That org hasn’t delivered anything useful in a decade (“useful” == “a user might notice and care”), so there’s no evidence current leadership could ship leadshot from a wet paper bag, even if they wanted to.

Also, they’d nearly double their laptop share overnight if they did this, and it’d cost them 10-20 FTEs.

You think that officially supporting Asahi linux would double their laptop share?
