How would the mainstream view it?

A hip cool new thing that they're just knowing. Probably intimidated too.

How would software support improve?

Borrowing ideas from already successful ways of supporting software done in other fields.

How would gaming look like?

Probably a huge deal breaker for some. If they know they can't run 100% of the games they acquire on an OS, then that's it.

Which country will become the first Linux majority? India? Seychelles?

India. It's projected to grow at 25.2%

How many local governments would start adopting it?

Not many.

What year do you think it will happen in?

If it took Linux 3 decades to finally get to even 2%, I'm betting it'll take another 3 decades or longer.
