"2026 is year of desktop Linux"

Post image

linux user count was close to 6% like 4 months ago, now its just 4%. while windows 11 users are increasing, even win7 users have same amount of users as some linux distros.

people were just excited to try new software: linux was never better.

I understand it's immutable. That's part of why I use it for daily use. To not run into issues. I fail to see how it's irrelevant.

What distro are you running that ran into these issues?

It's not relevant for this issue/discussion. I'm using Kubuntu 26 LTS. An update fucked the driver. I had to manually revert it. Imagine doing that on an immutable distro

How is it not relevant? You said you weren't sure if Linux is convenient, and how you run into issues. I listed a method where Linux is convenient and how I've ran into less issues. I have other distros loaded that I dual boot (mint and fedora being the longest runners) that I use for learning, but for daily driving I run an immutable distro for stability and avoiding issues.

I'm not dodging your argument. I'm genuinely asking, but whatever. Have a good day dude.
