    I have been using Linux since almost 30 years. It took me almost a week to get X running, since it had to reboot to windows everytime I wanted to look something up or get help. Now I buy games on steam without checking if they run, because… they just do. :)

    Actually I don’t need more people using Linux, I am happy with how it is now - no need to attract the attention of the malware industry. 😜

      I don’t think them and you will run the same Linux, but that’s ok. Choice is good and kind of the point. :-)

      I want everyone to have the benefit of Linux. It’s not just about me. We’d then get those missing applications and drivers. And if anyone wanted to get away from the mainstream, there are distros just for that.
