Almost all apps nowadays are created with a multiplatform framework, running on multiplatform libraries. Different desktops will co-exist for many years to come but Windows will still dominate at least until 2023. If Linux on the desktop stops being shit then it might get a chance. Most normalfags are using everything as a web or mobile app so the relevancy of the desktop will be smaller and smaller. Gaming is a big niche that could be turned around if Valve keeps investing in Wine and other Windows-on-Linux compatibility layers such as Proton.
