    Desktop Linux market share just broke past 6%—and I’m part of that shift.

    I finally made the move this year, pushed by two things:

    1. Proton making more of my game library playable
    2. Microsoft deciding my perfectly good PC isn’t worthy of Windows 11 while also pulling the plug on Windows 10.

    My landing spot? Pop!_OS. Turns out it’s not only capable, but actually more user-friendly than Windows. That’s just the cherry on top.

      @atomicpoet A friend who is a retired schoolteacher had her laptop die. I bought her a @system76 one with Pop!_OS. What's amazing is that she has never ever asked me a support question although she was switching from a very old Fedora laptop. I have recently purchased a System76 desktop, but mine is @debian Debian Testing with KDE.
