if they keep it up at this rate Linux will be the only OS people use by the year 3090 (16.66 years per percentage point)
Is that including Steamdeck in that 3%, or users becoming aware of Linux based on Steamdeck? 3 percent may not seem like much but it moves the 2 percent from 1 in 50 people to close to 1 in 30 people. So more chance of bumping into a fellow user. I met up with an old work colleague just before the pandemic, we got to chatting about computers he mentioned he had dumped W10 for Mint around the same time I’d dropped W10 for OpenSUSE. Seems the Windows 10 was a tipping point for more savvy computer users who understood there could be other Operating Systems out there besides Windows or MacOS.
Yall are making me wanna fuck with Linux. Lmao
great now Linux is mainstream enought i have fo over to free bsd to keep my hipster status
You can say something like “I’ve been here before the Steam Deck” or “I’ve seen the SystemD holy war” or any of the earlier changes around linux you’ve encountered
A couple of days ago i switched from Windows to Linux Mint, since W11 22H2 was slow, like really slow. I haven’t looked back to windows since
