Think about this for a second,Why we use Linux on supercomputers and servers and even our phones and embedded devices,But at home we are forced to use Windows from what i heard its built on stolen code and Microsoft had so much mess ups in the past, and why do manufactures put this stolen code os from a company with alot of mess ups in the past on their Pcs.
ME ??
That wasn't a good OS either...
Everyone migrates to Ubuntu. One finger of the monkey's paw curls up.
Windows 10 LTSC IoT is supported til the end of 2031, maybe 2032 will be the year I finally switch.

I decided to set up Fedora on my new laptop as it was either take a chance on that or spend like 3 hours debloating a Win11 install.
It's been over 10 years since I last tried dailying Linux, we have come a long way in that time. Everything just worked out of the box. No fucking around needed.
Even relatively niche stuff like my thunderbolt dock and the laptop's fingerprint sensor was picked up. And, thanks to the investment Valve has been putting into Wine and Proton, pretty much every game I've tried has worked with no issue.
Next time my desktop is due for a clean install I'll definitely be doing the same there.
But which Desktop?
Of course we all have our preferences and personal history with these things, but I think we can all agree that most preconfigured Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora and openSUSE ISOs with popular desktops are already more sensible and simple than the mess that is "searching for a setting in Windows".
Whether it's GNOME, KDE, Cinnamon, Budgie, Mate, XFCE, LXQt.
Compared to Windows, every Linux desktop is a blessing. Even that one that you personally don't like or had a bad experience with.
Steam OS?
Ah, yes, the mythical "Year of the Linux Desktop"—that elusive utopia Linux enthusiasts have been chasing since it's creation. Newsflash: nobody cares. The year of the Linux desktop isn't some grand global awakening; it's just whenever you decide to stop whining about it and install the thing. For me, it was 2002, and guess what? My computer didn't care either. It just worked. So stop waiting for some cosmic alignment of market share and app support. The year of the Linux desktop is when you make it. Now go forth and sudo (or doas) your destiny....
