Good.

Well, it's nice to see that anti-semitism is still alive in 2028.

10 years really isn't a long time dude, 2008 was 10 years ago. Megacorps last quite a big longer than 10-20 years. We're being realistic. Facebook is really the only one that's fucked because they build their business model around such a volatile market and are already starting to pay the price for it

Doesn't matter because FOSS will 100% be dead in the water for the rest of eternity by then. The kikes won.

Kikes love FOSS and digital activism and shit though. Torrents and the Free Software Movement were created by Jews

Nope, the TCP/IP stack was originally created by DARPA to be resistant as fuck. It's so robust it even works using fucking pigeons (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_over_Avian_Carriers).

Hello M$, Hello Google, you're losing :)

Hello Pajeet

The internet is a physical thing that exists in the physical world with physical wires connecting physical networks.

This illusion of control that these large companies have is absolutely laughable.

Microsoft, Google, Facebook, et al. are shitting their pants over a few thousands autists they KNOW they can't control unless they want to spend life behind bars.

Fuck you all, greed is a sin.

Bro I know you're trying to make a coherent argument but its not working. The fact the internet is a physical thing makes all the less illusionary that companies control it. ISPs need to exist wither you like it or not

Try again shill.

Read up on what an "ISP" is before you start talking shit idiot.

The INTERnet is an INTERCONNECTION of networks.

And here I am, freely shitting all over big tech :)

Goodbye, I have more important things to do than waste my time with Pajeets.

Fuck off back to cuckchan niggers

On Federal life-support after the US dollar collapse.
Rebranded to an app-only network that openly spies on you. Will be on Federal life- support after the US dollar collapse.
As big as ever. As others have pointed out they have diversed their portfolio beyond Windows and sub-par Office.
As big as ever due to huge cash reserves. Will have diversified into new territory.
Online sales will crash as they are no longer competitive on prices and normies are starting to notice. Competitors that survived their rise have figured out how to compete with them already. Has already diversified, so will survive. Also has huge reserves.
Significantly less market share.
Significantly less market share.
Mainstream and better than ever. The biggest problem always was too many distro choices, so now that they are easy to narrow down (looking only at OpenRC instead of systemD and no CoC leaves only a handful of serious distros). Devuan is most likely to emerge on top due to name recognition and code quality.
Bigger than ever given current trends of exponential growth and FOSS developers having learned/learning how to effectively raise capital. FOSS developers are currently more successful than ever at raising capital, and new FOSS software continues to become integral to basic operations of large companies.

Lots of glowing posts ITT.

Literally the second line of your post and you immediately show your sheer lack of knowledge of how any of this works. You lack the knowledge required to form an educated opinion. Your entire post of conjecture can be safely discarded

I think all general purpose OS's will be gone for the most part. The "Deaktop" and "Laptop" will be a foreign thing to most people. Like we see old mainframe's today.Will be only something seen in a lab or for at work for development. Everyone will have their controlled walled garden mobile and tablet thing that tracks their every move. No real control over it and people will be OK with that. Its all about the latest APPS.

Dead. There will always be coders but the pipeline that sparked people who code for the love of coding will be shut off. No BASIC Rom 8bits, No hand-me-down PC's to install gentoo on. Don't need to know anything but how to enter you Apple ID so you can install the latest APPS from the App store. No free users. Just niggercattle.

Kill yourself, defeatist.

Keep dreaming kid. We've already come to terms with the fact that freedom is on its last legs.


/thread
There's nothing you can do to change or stop this. Freedom is dead. Apps are eternal.

Zig Forums will never accept these facts. Someone should at least archive this post for posterity and as a reminder to all hopefags that the kikes won the war whether we like it or not.

Thread should probably end right here. These predictions are about as legit as you can get.

Facebook will be poorer but still alive in some form all the third world countries won't have that much faster Internet in 10 years time. Google and Microsoft will be the longest lasting ones I'm sure they have $ in other business like real estate and oil

By far the saddest and most realistic forecast ITT. Screencap this shit so bluepills and NPCs in this board finally get the memo.

They exist now, but in ten years they won't. Context is important, kid.

linux got a CoC. That's it. The old linux will continue running fine, as will every other FOSS kernel. You will still be able to use it. Will normies use free software? no, but they don't now anyways, so there's no loss.

Desktop is dying, and has been for years. Soon everything will be done on phones and desktop computers will only be seen in workplaces.

No

stagnant =/= dying. The PC industry will continue on forever but it significant growth has just stopped. Everyone who wanted a PC already has a PC. There are about 3 billion PCs in use and the only reason there are more smartphones is because smartphones are dirt cheap commodities and a single person can have multiple smartphones but only a single PC. PCs will always be needed and has in fact seen some growth in recent years driven by more powerful laptops being introduced to the market.

A recent study shows about 50 percent of gamers in the US game on PC, more than on consoles

I think that vastly underestimates the money in computer gaming.

We definitely take what you post seriously, fellow techie. No derailment attempt at all...

Still around as a search engine, but used much less due to increase in competition from smaller companies. Other ventures sold off to comply with new laws or trim fat.

MS is going to leave consumer computing like IBM did. W10 is the foundation for this, and there's no reason for them not to. They'll launch the next xbawks as a streaming service instead, it'll fail and that'll be the end of it like it was the end of Zune and the MSphone. Google and Fagbook are going to get regulated and torn apart by the US, EU and China for different reasons and go the way of AOL. Apple will remain, Amazon will grow.

No idea

Windows 7 is treated as Windows XP to a degree. However gamers gradually migrate to Windows 10 because of DirectX versions and new games.

Existing.

If CoC sticks around, it gradually loses relevance and it's reliability. Fork may occur, but the CoC won't necessarily be the tipping point. Some people still migrate from Windows to Linux and some companies end up better supporting it; but in the big picture, the people who migrated to finally support their ideals or to escape Windows do so too lately and essentially jump from the frying pan and into the oven.

More or less the same. Some projects become relevant and lose it, and other rise to relevancy. Eventually recognizes SJW/cointelpro tactics and some revisions to GNU GPL are done to take that into account.

Wow! None of those other guys did anything? Why were they so lazy that they couldn't contribute to that accomplishment?

They were just there because of their male privilege.

How can someone miss the point of the image this badly?

One of the few correct posts ITT.

Zig Forums will deny this

...

What a bunch of linear thinkers. No wonder why your families have always been so poor.

These three will merge. It will actually be Google buying MSFT, but later will rollup FB. (to be fair though, fb will almost be dead by the time they buy).
The biggest change tech has ever seen will be google botnet integrated into every corner of windows. Google will do away with all licensing and every MS product will be "free". As a result it will achieve near 98% penetration into every market. Every sign, atm, security camera, POS checkout, etc will be full Goog-MSFT botnet. The data captured will make todays "privacy concerns" seem quaint and old fashioned.

Largely in response to GOOG move to purchase MSFT, Apple will buy Amazon.

Ubiquitous
Almost forgotten
CoCed into footnote status.
"Thriving" - Will mostly be sponsored by big tech as a way to get free workers to help them improve their botnet. In return Neets will get their yearly web framework fad to argue over and rewrite their websites in. Most foss members will killed off in "Bernies Camps" in 2027.

Google has peaked, it's Amazon's game now. As we speak Congress is figuring out how to regulate Google, whereas Amazon is fine for now.

By far the best and most realistic prediction ITT. Bluepill cucks will cobtinuously deny this as (((they))) keep winning while freedom keeps losing.

See
They have far from peaked, hopefag

Sad but true forecast of the future that we are going to be living in. Unfortunately most of Zig Forums these days don't want to accept these truths, despite how many facts and statistics back them up.

Dead as a social network, but instagram oculus and whatsapp are still around and they still own them

Still around, unfortunately

Dead, the brand magic is over because they couldnt come up with a new shitty gadget like the iphone was so nobody wants to pay them for shinny shit anymore

Practically a monopoly on online sales, killed retail, probably gonna get fucked with antitrust

Literally OS-as-a-service, normies still use it

Fucking dead, like the mac lineup has been for a while

Got fucked with the recent takeover, lots of talent got the fuck out of it and out of FOSS too after seeing how it all went to shit because of some aposematic landwhales. Some went GPLv2 on their asses and got their code out which pretty much killed it. Linus went full-cuck and never asked for his trademark.

Gone to total shit, anyone still around is a SJW faggot who can't code.

It'll be like the wrist watch from shimoneta, but instead of preventing you from telling dirty jokes.
It just forces you to be gay.

Microsoft gave up on mobile quite some time ago, user.

Like who? Apple has enough money, in cash, to survive losing tens of billions year over year for decades. Can you name a single company that squirreled away money to that extent that has died? The 'too big to fail' companies almost always were cooking their books, which is why they implode all of a sudden, otherwise they have very obvious trends of accumulating debt.

And the best part is that you can't change this fate. We will all be forced to use only phones for the rest of our lives and everyone in Zig Forums knows it.

They're alive and thriving. Android continues to gain market share. Chrome loses it slightly to Firefox (which they respond to by increasing Mozilla's financial dependence on them and their control over it even more, making Firefox even more alt-Chromey than it already is). Fuchsia doesn't kill Linux as quickly as Chrome killed IE but it does grow. Their indigenous devices (Pixel, Chromebooks, etc.) continue to grow in profitability and marketshare. YouTube and Google Search are slightly less popular due to autistic alternatives but still have a firm monopoly. Maps, Docs, etc. maintain their unbreakable hold over normies. Google+ is still unpopular.

Most of their big money comes from energy investments and the like that normies are unaware of, which they then use to subsidize low cost services like YouTube that allow them control over the narrative. They also continue to get significant funding from the US Deep State and their relationship (financial and otherwise) with the Chinese government grows. They may get hit with a few anti-trust actions but it won't impact them significantly. If Trump somehow manages to go off the reservation and really try to break them up (which he won't), they will abandon the US. They are the true unbeatable evil empire of our time.


Facebook itself limps along mostly inhabited by pajeets and grandmas. Instagram is somewhat less popular but still relevant so long as they don't change anything too much, becoming more of a "default social network" (especially among Gen Zs) than Facebook itself, which comes to be seen as optional if not completely dispensable by most Westerners (as it basically already is now). The company struggles to innovate or even properly develop new acquisitions but they don't go under as their reputation allows them to call upon a variety of favors and financing options, particularly from the developing nations that think of Facebook as the entire Internet.


Consumer acceptance of Windows as SaaS is non-existent; normies would rather get viruses than pay a monthly fee. The Xbox brand experiences a mild resurgence due to its recent commitment to consumer friendliness, but Microsoft immediately fucks it up. They're still fine though as they continue to milk the sweet teat of enterprises that have sold their soul to Windows and Office forever.


iShit is less popular marketshare-wise (though their sales numbers will still probably go up in absolute terms due to expanding populations and growing middle classes in the third world) but they've got tons of cash so they're fine. They try to introduce a few other new products but nobody cares.


They lose significant market share to competitors but are still healthy. They become the Wal-Mart of the Web: Everybody buys from Wal-Mart sometimes, but nobody buys only from Wal-Mart.


It's still shit. It's still dominant on desktop. It tries to shove cloud services down your throat in every context but Microsoft's too afraid to make it completely unusable without cloudshit so most people just ignore it.


Nobody cares about it still other than hipsters and people who do so much hard technical work as part of their main occupation that they wanted to be treated like babies by their computers when they get home.


It's about the same as ever, though somewhat more popular on desktop and somewhat less popular everywhere else (due to fuchsia). Linus comes back but with far less power, though everyone tries to pretend (except autists here) like he's still the "benevolent dictator" and hasn't been compromised at all. The code quality isn't much worse but they are less scrupulous about things like backwards compatibility and not breaking userspace that Linus stressed. There's tons of corporate cruft and binary blobs in it.


Cucked

They'll have changed their policies and licenses to respect user freedom and all Google software will have become free software.
Facebook will have died as a social network because its users will have removed their accounts and moved to GNU social.
Using the same tactics employed in getting users to switch to Windows 10, Microsoft will have seen the great evil they did and will have encouraged users to upgrade to a free operating system, eventually gracefully dying as a corporation.
Due to the successes of software freedom activism and the complete migration of users to free software, Apple will have lost all customers and bankrupted.
As I have never used Amazon, I have no opinion.
If what you're referring to is the kernel named Linux, then that will continue to be one of the most-used kernels in personal computers. Some time further in the future a different kernel, such as GNU Hurd, will dethrone it.
The FOSS community will see an exponential growth in FOSS developers, especially from Spanish-speaking countries and countries where free software activism has been successful.

since when are you on Zig Forums stallman?

Large companies collapse all the time. Who do you think Apple and Amazon displaced? Nike just lost over $1 billion last week. These sorts of companies are extremely fragile, especially given that they are by definition poorly managed. Just in the last few months Sports Authority and Toys'R'Us closed their doors for good, and K-Mart will do so too within a few months. You faggots are just mad that you're losing in your traitorous investments in those companies. Put your money in actual good companies, not what the kikes tell you are "too big to fail and may possibly even beat inflation!" If you purposely invest in companies without expecting to triple your investment within 3 years, you should just kys.

Those 5 companies you listed all have the same thing in common though. Brick and Mortar chains that have become obsolete with the advent of online shopping. Large companies like Google and Microsoft that make most of their income from data don't have the same type of vulnerability.

In charge of the internet.
Still doing Android (but renamed) stuff.
Acquired by Google or MS. Dead.
Subscription based OS on laptops/computers.
Same as today on phones/tablets.
same as now
MS Windows 10 is multi-tiered (Home, Home Server, Premium, Professional, etc) subscription based. Windows 10 will called something else to stay hip and relevant but will still be the same rolling release trash.
MS Windows 7 is completely discontinued.
There will be a Microsoft Linux distribution that has limited support for Windows applications via a VM or compatibility layer (like Wine). It will have features that regular Linux can legally not have.
MSLinux will be geared toward pre-installs for home consumer computers/laptops and will be plagued with advertisements, telemetry, incompatibilities, and other insecurities. Upgrades for the "real" Windows will be pretty seamless and for a nominal fee.
Linux will be known as just a bootleg Windows for poor people (so PR-wise back to the good old days I guess). It will be frustrating enough to get about 30% of it's users to pay the Windows 10 upgrade.
In general Laptop (and the extremely few desktops still being sold) will be locked pretty well against installing any OS other than MSWindows, MSLinux, ChromeOS, and I can foresee an IntelLinux.
FOSS Linux will be relegated to old hardware and VMs.
Pretty much the same as now.
