    Just curious because Distrowatch can be easily gamed; does anyone know how this might affect the linux consumer market? I’m using Mint and see no reason to switch to this. I used to nerd out about different distros but aside from the enterprise distros or Debian or Arch preferences I don’t see why people are using smaller distros anymore. Hobbyist i guess?

      Thanks for de-influencing me out of switching to KDE plasma, mint and ubuntu are the only distros I’ve tried and I’ve been thinking about trying something new

      New users (like me) that aren’t necessarily passionate about linux and just looking for a windows alternative can be easily persuaded early on

          After bashing my face against the wall getting lutris to run StarCraft 2, I’m avoiding looking at my OS too hard

          I feel like I should try arch just once so I understand the memes
