[QUOTE="mazskolnieces, post: 910471, member: 88422"] I do not know anyone who is a big media consumer, gamer or business desktop user who uses Linux as their daily driver. The ones that I do know that use Linux daily tend to be the equivalent of Chromebook users. It's not that they particularly love Linux. It is that they dislike Windows or Microsoft more, and would rather exercise that dislike by using something other than Windows. Then you have the Google haters. They too don't want to use anything Google related. The typical Linux user tends to be anti-big-tech, pro-privacy. So they tend not to use things such as Chrome, Microsoft Office, media players and so on. They also seem to be much more tolerant of bugs or willing to do extensive troubleshooting. Trying to replicate a Windows-like experience on LInux is a waste of time. Millions have tried. None have succeeded. Despite all the improvements, Linux as a desktop remains a failure. [/QUOTE]
