I use arch btw
He was asked tho, he built a pc and installed linux on it without mentioning it and people started asking about it.
Cool. I use Linux too, by the way.
That's how we know he isn't a Tool fan.
As a Tool fan I can tell you that you are correct.
Installing Linux was a good decision.
I have not gone back to Microsoft Windows.
Don't listen to people telling you it's hard. I don't have any IT degree or engineering degree
Installing it was easy. Linux is elegant, secure and powerful. I love it.

I admire the perpetual Linux optimism but man if I could make money betting against you I would (I'd feel a little evil about it, but I need the cash).
When corporate slop all around us is continuing to thrive despite lower and lower quality products and receiving government support now too, to think the big money makers will somehow lose traction in a meaningful way to open source enthusiasm is niave imo.
I'm not even sure Taylor swift could make Linux happen this year, nevermind this racist dirt bag.
It definitely won't happen as long as the corporate world is slaved to Microsoft. We actually have a few Linux computers on our domain at work and they're a pain to administer as are the four Macs that we have.

I have, we're a multi-OS houshold. Linux, Steam Deck, Windows, MacOS, iOS, Android.
Different tools for different purposes. You wouldn't have just one kind of screwdriver, right?
No.
But if I only need a specific screwdriver cause none other fit these screws, it costs $200 and plays ads while I hold it, then I'll use different screws instead.
