@coolboymew if we keep this up, we might reach 10% by....2043!
@airfoils @coolboymew considering that macOS is around 10-15%, I wouldn't mind lol
It would be a good pace for "organic" growth.
Only way I see Linux installs increasing at a faster rate is if Microsoft dropped the ball REALLY hard, even harder than Vista/8.
Tho I doubt that's possible, if they can gaslight users into thinking their PCs are obsolete as with 11, they can get away with murder lol
And anyway, even if they drop the ball, the alternative is macOS in the "normie" mind, not Linux
@coolboymew @kQuote03 I think it'll depend a lot on how they push Windows 365 (the cloud version). Currently, it is aimed more at enterprise use, but if it becomes the only way to use windows in the short term, I could see people ditching it.
Although, in my opinion, what they will probably do is slowly transition over the next couple of years and only by the end of the decade, if computers become more of a power-user thing, will they offer a cloud-only version of Windows.
If this is how it pans out, Linux will probably "win" the desktop, but by then it won't be something that will matter anymore. (I pray that I'm wrong tho)
