i’m sure the free market will solve this. we just need to wait for a new company to pop up, make a new operating system, ensure windows programs are properly emulated, convince the majority of people and businesses to use it, and then use its new monopoly for good.

Linux with FUTURE WINE is your solution

future wine is just the future versions of wine, specifically the one that will be perfectly able to run windows programs

Eh, I only use WINE to run games, I've been able to use native Linux stuff for everything else.
