I love how people keep saying it’ll be the year of linux desktop with this news. While Windows, keeps thriving in the desktop market. Because one, most computer users want simplicity. Two, pc manufacturers bundle Windows because of reason one. Three, they want a familiar interface. Four, windows license is also bundled in pre-built PC and laptops. Five, even if someone were to build a PC themselves, because microsoft know people pirate windows so much, they actually allow people to use windows without activating! What feature they lose without license? Personalization. That’s it! And six, ordinary people never watch/read tech related channels/websites to begin with knowing what linux even is! Despite i’m a linux user (in the past, now on servers) myself, i won’t say “it’s the year of linux desktop.” Because people refuse to learn new things. Oh my god. *sigh.
