Why the Linux ecosystem cannot be considered “standardized”, unlike Windows and Mac?

    Same reason “clothes” cannot be considered standardized. Someone will think standard is jeans and T-shirt, for others it’s a suit, and for others a dress, some will change clothes regularly, and others will only wear Nike shoes. If you try to define what everyone should wear you’ll get people pissed off, and they will still wear what they want.

      I guess it depends on how “standard” is defined. Ie, its pretty standard for shirts to have 2 arm holes, one head/neck hole, and one body hole and therefore they work for the vast majority of users.
