What is the exact qualification in order to be called “the year of the Linux desktop”? I have been using Linux on my desktop computer(s) for almost two decades. Was my year of the Linux desktop this year also?
For me, it’s when Linux was a viable desktop operating system to daily drive and still be fairly compatible with other operating systems, which was ages ago.

@victorz @recursive_recursion When it is on more PCs than either Windows or iOS.
Is that a universally held definition?
@victorz I think the Klingons and Ferengi are having doubts, but it will do for me!

@victorz For me, that was 1993. But I always took ‘year of the desktop’ to allude to the time when it became popular with other people.
