Don't criticize Linux

I know we’ve said it before but THIS year is definitely going to be the year of desktop Linux!

Most people already have several Linux machine in their home. I wouldn't be surprised that Linux has already thc malority of consumer device.

Just Desktop aren't but smartphone, routers, and tons of smart shit are Linux based

My kids haven't even used Windows, aside from like 5-10 min here and there on my wife's PC.

Yup. Not counting my two PCs that both run Linux, I have:

LG Smart TV - webOS is Linux
Android phone and tablet
Chromecast - pretty sure it's Linux
Steam Deck - SteamOS is Linux

And that's just the ones I know about. I wouldn't be surprised if our cars, refrigerator, washing machine, etc all ran Linux inside. In fact, the only devices we have that I know don't run Linux (and have a real OS) are:

wife's iPhone
wife's iPad
wife's PC - Windows
my work computer - macOS
Switch - FreeBSD

But 4/5 of those are still *nix.

Linux needs still needs more THC malority, IMO.
