Linux users are the vegans of the computer world

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
I wouldn't say it is "Year of the linux desktop!" But I do think eventually it will take up much more of the market of OS use. Maybe years and years away.
Linux has come a very long way. I found it is actually easier in many ways to Mac and Windows, more complicated in others.
For general use, and even gaming, it's actually in a really good state for general users right now.
The amount of time I've wasted trying to fix dumb issues in Linux, usually to do with some kind of file missing or dependency not being available but unable to be installed is infuriating. I always end up just trashing the install and starting again. I'm a systems engineer and I hate troubleshooting Linux issues. Great for servers, shitty for something you're fucking with on a day to day basis like a desktop os. Also bash sucks ass.
