It starts slow, but an ever-upper trend shows something: To me, it means people succeeding with it are incentive to others. Of course there is no marketing or TV ads to kick-off a large public (explaining a slow take-off). In my family, the hacker sons had Linux for 10 years... Then Windows XP retired and the grand-parents had to throw their very clean and working computers. At this point they got Linux Mint, saved money, and (as end-users) did not see any difference with Windows XP (except that green color). From that time, the aunt and sister have also moved to Linux Mint and are happy with it. By the way, libreOffice was unpleasant for them (habits and broken document layouts) and they smiled back to WPS Office. Windows is gone in 4 houses, including 3 non-geek houses; IT wastes have a lot decreased and money is saved for better purposes... And it is ages the geek family members were not called for viruses or cryptohacks. They are only called for new installs :-)
