This is a very idealsitic stance. It's not the best for web because web has been refined where users are - MacOS or Windows. I wish it were different.

Simply not remotely true - try it yourself. The best supported distros (Redhat, Ubuntu, SUSE, etc.) all suffer from the same fragmentation of the Linux ecosystem. In fact not even Windows comes close to MacOS's font rendering (why do you think designers prefer it).
