    Linus Torvalds said somewhere, that in a weird irony, the reason why he made Linux in the first place was to use it on his desktop computer, yet desktop is the only market where Linux has not completely crushed all of its competition.

      It is getting better. But most people CANT use it as a daily driver.

      The unfortunate relaity is that MS rules the business space, and without native Outlook/Teams/Office is pretty tough. You can skimp by with browser based versions but still…That not gonna cut it for julie from HR i guess.

      I have been seriously considering trying it at work. But I do admin work. So many of the tools I use are opensource. Will still need RDP though.
