Linux adoption at scale was only possible because of getting in bed with corporate.

By the way, FreeBSD also enjoys a bit of corporated love, with the difference that love only goes into one direction.

Untrue on the one-way. Quite a few corporate entities have contributed back to FreeBSD over the years. Netapp, Netflix, Juniper, etc.

Much more haven't, that is why joking about Year of Desktop FreeBSD isn't even worthwhile.

Which doesn't really matter to people who already used Linux or BSD.

Apparently it matters to the OP, otherwise they wouldn't have mentioned it.
