A google for Year of the Linux Desktop shows a big number of seemingly serious articles from the last few years.
- zamadatix 5y agoSure, I can find many seriously saying just about anything on the internet if I go looking for it. I meant a literal you in "when was the last time _you_ ever heard someone say 'the Linux desktop will take off this year' or something similar?" I've personally heard "year of the Linux Desktop" from people directly many times per year every year that I can remember but in terms of response/meme/joke/etc not actually taking the stance "it _is_ the year of the Linux desktop". Yet I can't even think of the last time I even naturally ran across someone proposing the concept online (sans trying to purposefully find such a person like Googling) let alone someone I know being serious about it. Not sure if that is a normal experience and people just like to talk/joke about how it isn't all the time or if my bubble/filter is just abnormal.
