I finished The Left Hand of Darkness this week. I can only imagine how rock solid Linux would be in a world like that, where nearly 100 planets could cooperate on it instantaneously.
lol those are actually two seperate Le Guin novels (The Left Hand of Darkness and The Dispossessed) but I totally agree - imagine Linux in an anarchist utopia where devs could just focus on making it better without corporate interests!

You’re right, I think my brain fell out a bit when I said that lol.
I’ve just started The Dispossessed.
I’d think in such a world, it would very quickly become the dominant operating system.
