    I think that’s a bad comparison honestly. People keep thinking that Linux is going to somehow be useful for the average user which isn’t really the case. Linux is perfect for those who are interested in computers or computer related things.

    It would be really cool to see something like Chrome OS but with Linux native tech. I haven’t seen it yet but Bazzite is interesting.

        Linux has really never been a Windows alternative and it will never be. (At least for most people)

        Sure it works great if you are into it but outside of that it isn’t geared for use by the general population. That’s not say that Linux isn’t fine for most people. The thing is most people are not fine with Linux in the sense that they aren’t seeking what it provides.
