You're welcome to code a new OS and programs from the ground up in unportable optimized assembly language.

The cost would remain the same.
GPUs would still be fuckhueg.
You have phones and tablets today, which are computers that have gone from thick to very thin in ~6 years.

You either have universally usable software written in Java/Javascript and the like (Android Philosophy, "Bloating", Software and Hardware from different providers) or Software specifically tailored to the Hardware (Apple Philosophy - that's why iPhones always have "muh lower nominal specs" than Androids).
Perhaps installing gentoo to your pc is nowadays the best way to optimize Softwate for your hardware, but idk I'm relatively new, too.
If we want to achieve longer usage of smartphone hardware, maybe developing a gentoo for smartphones is the way to go.
Unfortuantely, though, smartphones are all about user interfaces, especially touch interfaces, and that's not really a strength of the open source community
(and because of all the "muh web developers are stupid pajeets" - posts I can understand why frontenders don't like the OS nerds, either)

No one would buy it, or even consider it "real software" or a "real computer" because everyone, even /g/, has been misled into thinking that making the numbers bigger is what "advancement" is while every other industry is concentrating on improving efficiency.

These threads are always fun because it reveals /g/ to be just as bad as the Pajeets and hipsters they despise so much.
