    The main thing stopping me is that I only use my PC for gaming, and I know the support for drivers etc isn’t as good on Linux (though I know this is debated).

    However if Linux became more centralised, with a “gaming first” distro like this, the graphics drivers would have a “main test case” to work with.

    This is my theory anyway.








  • Closer to the EoL time, someone is going to release a version of Linux that is basically windows, with a super locked down interface etc to make it so newbies can install and use with zero CLI or setup.

    Or at least some serious consumer-grade onboarding.

    Presumably it will have reduced functionality to make it as stable as humanly possible too.

    And they’ll probably become one of the larger distributions until people get the confidence to “upgrade” to a more complex one.
