When support for Win7 ends in 2020 it's easy to imagine a lot of people will be migrating to Linux.
Spydows just keeps getting shittier and Linux keeps getting better.
Then we've got Vulkan on the horizon and it's not hard to see that the days of that M$ surveillance engine being the "avid users OS" are numbered.
@Linux Heard it way too often before the last two decades, it never happened so far. Only chance for that possibly would be a couple of larger vendors starting to ship Linux devices to end users. But I rather see these folks moving from PC to mobile devices, Apple, Android ...
@Linux @z428 they said the same with the end of support for Windows XP and the introduction of Windows 8. So I agree that we'll only see major adoption if either OEMs start shipping Linux distributions on their machines, or if Windows switches its own kernel with the one from Linux and instantly become the biggest Linux distribution overnight. And it isn't like the aren't shipping Linux already. Just take a look at Azure Sphere 😎
@RyuKurisu @Linux ... happened. Maybe we're doing it wrong. And then again, maybe Windows vs. Linux ain't the biggest problem anymore these days.
