The Year Of The Linux Desktop would have actually happened if Elon Musk had bought Microsoft in 2007.

@jhpot 2007, I wasn't ready for Linux. Several failed attempts to dual-boot at that point. Spent a lot of Ā£k on Apple stuff since 1990, seeing it getting more consumer-oriented to the point I pulled the plug in 2020. Getting there on Mint now. Only joined the bird-site begin of this year, but you're right, stuff gets far better traction here.
