The year of the Linux desktop was probably the year Microsoft introduced WSL. It’d be a non-trivial percentage of total Linux desktop users.

If you need to run both Windows and Linux for whatever reason, Windows with WSL is a better experience than Linux with WINE (or a Windows VM). WSL can run GUI apps now, too.

I still stand by the stance that dual booting is better. Especially if you care about smooth performance and don’t have the hardware capability to run a VM smoothly.

Until you get these updates. But for sure Linux works better on a bloated corporation OS that that shady thing on free Software. Its way easier

When the first screenshots of Windows Vista were released my friends were commenting how it looks just like my Linux.

I’m not congratulating anyone moving to an Ubuntu derivative. They count towards Canonical’s update server access stats, inflating the user count of a distributor who’s hostile towards openness with their Snap stuff even if the derivative doesn’t even use Snap.

How often do you go outside? You seem to care a lot about silly things that really don’t matter.

Also Kubuntu is awesome and I hope that upsets you.
