I think we'll also see more of a differentiation between things grounded in open source ideology, like the FSF, and more corporate open source. I can't blame coders for any ideological impurity because I don't imagine that "buy me a coffee" button exactly fills up their bank vault with gold coins. That said, I appreciate the free software heroes who visualize what the world should be and work towards that. Maybe in the coming decade, we'll see FOSS hardware make some leaps and bounds. I choose to remain optimistic, but the software world is threatening to catastrophically implode at the moment and it's a bit hard to think positive.
