PewDiePie made a video on why he installed Linux and explained why everyone should do it too. Due to his number of followers, this might be the year of the Linux Desktop? Hooray?

    I have, we’re a multi-OS houshold. Linux, Steam Deck, Windows, MacOS, iOS, Android.

    Different tools for different purposes. You wouldn’t have just one kind of screwdriver, right?

      I get having Linux and Windows, after all you need a backup solution for when you can’t use Linux. But why do you also have a Mac?

      Then I guess iOS makes sense if you have a Mac, but why also have Android?

          Windows for interoperability.

          Try job hunting without a Windows machine. Good luck!

          (My wife hates it when she hits websites that don’t work properly and starts swearing, then I ask “Are you using a real browser or just Safari?” - “FUCK YOU!” Somehow we’re still married. 😀)

            Are you using a real browser or just Safari?

            I used to do web development, Safari is honestly worse then IE6

              It’s godawful, so many things don’t work in Safari and it’s because Apple can’t stand other people coming up with “standards”. :)

      No.
      But if I only need a specific screwdriver cause none other fit these screws, it costs $200 and plays ads while I hold it, then I’ll use different screws instead.
