I confirm win10 is my last version of windows. With linux supporting steam, there's no reason to have ads on my desktop.

  Agreed. I think the 'year of the Linux desktop' is more personal journey (as cliche as that sounds). Some folks never switch but for those that do, it's their year to experience linux. When was year of the Linux for you? Mine was mid 2020.

    Linux was ready for the desktop in 1998 for me. The funny thing is it only started when the only thing I wanted was a computer whose mp3 playing do not stutter while I was browsing and preparing a document for my degree. win98 + Winamp + office + netscape/ie couldn't on a pentium 100 I don't remember so little ram I had while linux with blackbox wm + xmms + staroffice + netscape could.

    For me it was around this time in 2017. I had already ditched Windows for Mac around 2011-2012, but my work machine was getting long in the tooth and I realized I could get twice the power for half the cost if I switched to linux. A few months later I built a linux desktop for home use. A couple more years and I put linux on my 2013 Air.

      Are we the same person? I also switched to macOS in 2011 and to Linux on Desktop in 2017, although I used Linux every once in a while parallel to Windows before. I also have a 2013 Air currently running Ventura with OpenCore, but I gave it to a family member a few years ago. Works well.
