There simply isn’t a proper contender to Apple. And with Apple silicon, it’s a done deal for the next decade at least.
Apart from hardware, you need a company that is willing to take Linux from the ground up and create a macOS type OS. Not simply make your own distribution and DE and call it a day. Chromebook was close, but they had bad execution and wrong ideas.

Some translators that still insist on localizing honorifics is funny, stuff like using Sir or making up a nickname for a character. I wonder what the Japanese do when translating English source to Japanese, do they insert honorifics where it doesn’t exist in the source?

This already happens, spinbots and speedhacks aren’t a thing anymore.
The current hacks are aim triggers, aim lock, aim/spray assist, and some close proximity wallhack.
The cheats calculate the recoil spread and auto lock to enemy heads. It’s obviously not as a bad as before with client side bullets, but it is still a problem.

Re:Lisp and Haskell (2017)

Well there are more Haskell jobs than rust here, so I wouldn’t say more mainstream.
Syntax isn’t as nice as Haskell as well. A Haskell programmer fed up with purity would just move to Ocaml or F# tbh.
