PewDiePie made a video on why he installed Linux and explained why everyone should do it too. Due to his number of followers, this might be the year of the Linux Desktop? Hooray?

    I admire the perpetual Linux optimism but man if I could make money betting against you I would (I’d feel a little evil about it, but I need the cash).

    When corporate slop all around us is continuing to thrive despite lower and lower quality products and receiving government support now too, to think the big money makers will somehow lose traction in a meaningful way to open source enthusiasm is niave imo.

    I’m not even sure Taylor swift could make Linux happen this year, nevermind this racist dirt bag.

      It definitely won’t happen as long as the corporate world is slaved to Microsoft. We actually have a few Linux computers on our domain at work and they’re a pain to administer as are the four Macs that we have.
