Ummm I gave up on Linux desktop being a mainstream thing about... 6 years ago. But Linux as a desktop needs to exist anyway, there's enough usage.

Because I primarily use a laptop, Linux desktop is a no no for me. I spent years trying to get my trackpad to behave as beautifully as it does with MacOS and could never get it.

That alone is enough to drive me off Linux Desktop ... For now.

I'm rooting for it though

I gave up after my third gig where I could use Linux to work... but had to be my own it support, and make all the corporate tooling work on top of it. This job am now using the provided macbook... I do hate the weird non-Linux gawk, sed, curl, etc, and brew is very underwhelming, but I stopped having to spend days making random corporate spyware work because compliance, and then have to recover lost time in actual work.

This was a rant-y way of saying I agree xD
