    Based on my conversations with my clients, it seems like the 2025 date is going to result in the greatest Linuxing of all time.

      as an avid multi-decades linux desktop user who has worked at a company with people in it before, i believe there is no way in fuck that this is true.

        You’re right in that this isn’t true of your typical working folks who use Microsoft 365, Sharepoint, or specialized design software.

        There are a lot of folks who just use their computer for a web browser. When you tell them that their hardware, some of which is as young as 2017, will lock them out of security updates in two years, they’re pretty receptive to alternatives like ChromeOS or Linux.

        For some of the older population, the simplicity of such options is a huge perk.

      The year of the Linux desktop is upon us. The prophecy has been foretold by the sages of the code. A new dawn is on the horizon. A new era of freedom an power approaches as more and more disks are cleansed by the mighty forces set free by Stallmann and Torvalds. No more shall the users be enslaved by proprietary software and restrictive licenses.

      The Year of the Linux Desktop is upon us, and nothing can stop it.
