        I mean, I’ve been hearing it for 15 years, we can’t be wrong for that long, right? Which means that next year it’s 100%!

          Yeah, I also think with just so few alternatives, just by pure chance alone this should already very probably be the year of Linux on desktop

      Would it even be a good thing if Linux became super main stream? Maybe we should be careful what we wish for.

          I’m not sure. I envision a lot of regulatory stuff happening around the kernel as it becomes more popular & vital to infrastructure. As that happens, the direction of it becomes more controlled and eventually maybe becomes unrecognizable.

          But maybe the fact it’s open source flat out prevents that?

          I really don’t know, I’m not a futurists, I was just internet speculating.
