what’s up with this? I see this school of thought bandied around quite a bit recently. wayland… it’s a protocol. do they hate tcp/ip too? can they boycott that instead?
its sort of litrpg - less “numbers go up” than most. no idea if a game could be created from it. I dont think we have reached the right tech base to emulate a System yet
if you want to try other distros, try using gnome-boxes for a bit - it lets you easily spin up a virtual machine. there’s better vm apps out there but boxes is really simple to use. I played around with getting Arch installed via cli last night in a vm (via boxes) - didnt actually install it of course, just re-partitioned the /dev/vda, etc.
I was using mx linux for a while on my testbench machine, switched over to kde neon recently and it’s a much better experience.
hopefully they’ll design some package manager incompatible with android at the most basic level - and then double down when it’s proven to be a huge mistake. a good tick upwards for dev jobs, but the time for actual competition was over 10 years ago. this will fail miserably.
Whatever the actual numbers, it is not unrealistic that Linux will emerge as the second operating system after Windows, especially given Apple’s currently confusing sense of direction.
curious for a 27 year old article how accurate it turned to be (androidOS notwithstanding). Windows seems to still be the “2,000-pound gorilla” but there are other options available these days…
