I'm afraid the PC ecosystem is one-of-a-kind, and perhaps once it's gone, we'll never have anything like it again. Companies are obsessed with vertical integration now, owning everything from software to peripherals and accessories. The closest thing we have to PC ecosystem where multiple independent companies works to support a single platform is perhaps the raspberry pi ecosystem, but even then it's pale in comparison to the PC ecosystem in term of variety and number of manufacturers.
