Is this finally the year of Linux on the desktop? Well, just like years ago, the answer is still the same—no.

Maybe next year, guys and gals.

Maybe it's the decade of the Linux desktop?

Slowly but surely, I feel like Linux has been really popular lately even two years ago when I jumped onboard the Linux train it felt like it was getting pretty mainstream and now much more so with people like gamers nexus including it in their latest videos a lot and talking about all the reasons to do so

For me, the year of the Linux Desktop was in 2007 or so.
