For me, at least. Finally moved my desktop off Windows 10 and on to CachyOS. Things just… work. Finding applications to install via AUR is easy, gaming is great. The only thing I’m missing is Fusion360 but I didn’t use it too much to begin with. Happy to be Microsoft-free. Several friends have switched off of Windows as well which is great to see. I’ve really been enjoying Arch (btw) I have CachyOS on my laptop and also in a VM which is nice to have the same desktop experience on all my devices. Looking forward to the road ahead!


Go back 20 years. See how many times this prediction has been made 🤣🤣
The only shift now is Microsoft shitting the bed so hard that people don’t want to deal with them. The difference this time is the MacBook Neo.
People would gladly pay Apple $600 for a working machine WITH support and stores everywhere to get help if they have hardware issues. It’s the new iPhone business model. They’ll be taking more desktop market share than people even imagine on the price point alone.
Go back to the post and read the first sentence.
2026 is the year of Linux on OP’s desktop.
Also, I’m not going into Apple’s walled garden.
Its different this time. And you know it.
Linux already got good a few years ago. Once most of the software just worked in wine that was the point where Linux adoption started to grow
Linux has been the most prolific OS on devices for 25 years, friend.
Did the post say it’s the year of the linux device?
