    I’m loving to see all these people jumping to Linux. I switched back in 2008 with Ubuntu 8.10. So much has changed since then.

    Linux gaming also taking off. New Jolla phone on the way. Valve is also being helpful. On top of that the ‘Buy European’ movement also comes at the right time.

    I dare to say it’s looking pretty good

    You can only abuse your customers so much before they move on. I have long enjoyed using Windows, but when they announced my perfectly usable laptop wouldn’t be able to get 11 thanks to no TPM, and I had to go through a complicated set of hoops to manually install it, that was my breaking point. I will keep Windows for some limited stuff on dual boot on one machine, but elsewhere I’m going Linux only

      you’d think so… but the number of friends and family who still put up with this shit is incredible. Ads in the start menu, copilot popping up every time you press a wrong button on the keyboard, the entire task bar changing overnight with ads and stock tickers…

      That last one pisses me off so much… “i dont want to learn linux!”… MF’er, microsoft just rearranged your entire task bar and start menu overnignt and you didnt seem to have a problem adapting your workflow… why would switching to gnome or KDE be any different?

    The year of the linux desktop is different for every one. For me it was 2003. Haven’t looked back since and everytime I’m forced to use Windows, I feel like I need to take a shower.
