Microsoft is so far from where they started and yet still the same dumbasses that they always were
I've held off until now (I haven't), but now I'm going to call it (for the 1000th time):
This will be the year of the Linux desktop.
Unfortunately, unless Microsoft fucks up BIG time and makes Windows simply unusable, people will continue to use it. I think the year of the Linux desktop will come by the time GTA VII gets released, once we all here are six feet under.

Remember when Windows 10 was meant to be the last edition of Windows ...
It never was. That quote was an offhand comment by a developer evangelist that everyone ran with as the official word from Microsoft
It’s a bold move now that gaming is viable for linux. Please proceed Microsoft

I've been considering making the move to Linux for a few months now. If this comes to pass that will more than likely be the final nail in the coffin. Based on what I've seen, Linux has become a lot more user friendly since I messed with it when I had it on a mini laptop back in the day.
So I bought a Steamdeck, and while that is not my first experience with Linux.
It has opened my eyes to how easily it can replace my windows system for personal use.
Couldn't be happier, even with how locked down steamOS is, it lets me do anything I need.
