Just an FYI that at this rate it's only going to take another 115 years before Linux has 100% market share.

This is the same logic that a right wing ex-president of my country used to criticize the current leftist president while talking about the COVID-19 vaccination campaign.

That's for August. And the growth is exponential, not linear.

To a point. Let's be honest it's going to be more like an S-curve since you can't go past 100% market share, and some people will refuse to switch.

And people not wanting to switch is fine imo. Having competition will likely help all OS's get better over time

i mean i'd prefer the competition to be BSD and such, not windows and macos
