So 2025 will finally be the year of the Linux desktop?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

it will be the start of the age of the insecure Windows 10 desktop

It might be for me. Or at least sometime. When win10 support will be dropped or whatever I might eventually make Linux my main OS. ~Just a matter of time😅

if you wanna get familiar with linux you should try it on a virtual machine and since your a newbie your first distro should be linux mint as its ui is quite easy to understand or try it out on your own machine via a live usb

I have linux mint on a random hdd, but I almost never use it. I have to tinker a lot with it. Some day..😅

If Microsoft can't figure out how to unlock the taskbar in Win11 so over/under monitor layouts can work (taskbar being bottom/bottom top/top), it will be for me. Drive me up a wall that the whole point of Win11 was a better UI, and basic fucking customization is dropped. I didn't buy a Mac, don't try and tell me how I am supposed to set up my desktops.

The year of the four linux desktops, I hope! (I have 3, but two need to go to the landfill).
