    The only thing Linux needs is proper hardware marketed well globally.

    Linux needs to position itself to a market just like how ChromeOS did.

    That is just not what linux is doing.

    Convincing any one particular entity to do anything won't mean luls for Linux market share, so much it will only make the lives of existing users more convenient

    "Linux" isn't doing that because it's not a centralized capitalist entity like google. Red hat is the best positioned entity to do it but I'm not sure if they have the ability to lobby manufacturers, sign deals with them, and market the platform like google did. There has to be a strong centralized drive towards this. If the Linux sector supports the idea, a central org has to be formed to do it and the whole sector has to support it.
