Until Apple stops restricting innovation and limiting what people can put on their devices, I hope that they continue to lose market share to the point of oblivion. They got caught up in their own stardom and sunk like the Titanic.
Sounds like you are describing Bitcoin too.
One block chain for everybody is a walled garden. What happened to personal choice? I happened to prefer a debased block chain, because for one of many reasons, Gresham's Law insures that debased money will drive non-debased money out-of-circulation. And can't we see that is happening now with off chain Paypal and Coinbase bringing the masses into the Bitcoin unit. Won't be too long after they can start loaning fractional reserve units of BTC traded off chain. People will love that.
Only One Way never scales. Never. TCP/IP isn't the only protocol on the internet. There is no monopoly protocol on the internet. Not even HTTP is unassailable. There is
a distinction between this reality and paradigms which do not self-optimize.
