What's going to happen when general purpose computers fall out of fashion and the only thing left are locked down "convertible" tablets with locked bootloaders that only run windows or some android rom?

Because you can't really write actual software on these things, no matter how hard you try.
Am I going to have to jailbreak my own computer to get root access in 10 years from now?

No, you'll use old hardware. Ten year old computers are not only in great working condition today, but they don't feel obsolete to use either.

we do seem to be headed for that

don't expect to be able to just swap your sata storage for another sata storage or anything either

shit sucks

Start hoarding computers today. Then when the techofascists take over, you can sell them to anarchocyberpunks for synth opiates.

Normalfags don't write software.
You'll have to pay far more for some "workstation" to get an actually usable computer, just like in the 1980s and early 1990s. Why? Because demands will be really low.

It's going to be a gradual shift. The recent BIOS changes are a sign of things to come.

There's no reason someone can't write an IDE for phones and tablets.

Hell in the future you might even be able to code Android apps on your Android phone.
