Wouldn't it be when there are only 2 companies selling a product by @pipows@lemmy.today's logic? Windows for example has 71% desktop marketshare worldwide, but Apple, Linux, BSD, Redox, TempleOS, and others as "competitors". Or ~90% of all sunglasses are made by one company in Italy, but there are hundreds of copycats from China and other countries with knockoffs.

What's that called? I'm still curious about @pipows@lemmy.today's answer.
