Linux will never be a home operating system for most people. It will not even come close to windows or Mac. It is not user friendly, it is not supported by the VAST majority of home use software and it has too many distros. No one wants to get with an OS when the first question is which version. The learning curve is too steep and when stuff goes wrong it is way harder to find and solve.
It's nice that yall like it but the amount of forceful shoving of Linux on lemmy is hysterical knowing how no one listens.
This kind of self-fulfilling prophecy is what will drive down even more support for Linux. The thing we need to do right now is to let more people try out Linux so that corporations will see Linux as a potential target on the desktop and make products for Linux, not the opposite like what you are saying.
Me: Linux won't work because Linux people push it too hard despite it having multiple downsides in comparison to the more widely used OS
You: NO, YOU JUST NEED TO USE LINUX
You: "Linux will never be a popular OS."
Him: "I think it actually can be if we --"
You: "WERE YOU NOT LISTENING?!"
It's fitting that you used a gif of Riker before he grew the beard.
Funny how I literally quoted the part of my post that was relevant and you still blindly ignored it. Blind subservience.... Gotta be a Linux fanboy
