The more likely scenario is that companies will force you to use flatpak or something, since that way they can containerize everything to be the same across distributions. If you look at the Steam surveys, SteamOS is the standout distribution, but that’s only about 25% of users, and it’s due to the Steam Deck’s appeal. The next is Arch Linux (nobody would consider forcing users to use that), and the one after that is flatpak. Steam arguably only officially supports Ubuntu, and that’s <10% or so of users.
So yeah, there’s no way everyone switches to a single distro in the short term, and new users don’t seem to overly prefer one over another (I see lots of new users switching to Fedora, Debian, and Mint, whereas in the past it was mostly Ubuntu).
So yeah, bring it companies. Force me to you flatpak you little devils. :)
