I’ve had this in my .zshrc for a while:
alias $(date +%Y)="echo 'YEAR OF THE LINUX DESKTOP'"If you type the current year in your terminal, it will say “YEAR OF THE LINUX DESKTOP” lol
Hot take (?): For anyone who has made the switch, it was the year or the Linux desktop. 🤷♂️
Nah I definitely was giving stuff up to use Linux back in the day. Really, I’d say 2021 was when things got REALLY good.
I’m assuming you mean gaming? Yeah, I rarely boot into Windows these days, honestly.
Whatever it is though, it’s always a compromise. There are things with Windows we can’t get on Linux still, and there have been things with Linux which Windows still hasn’t provided, for decades. Either way you go is a trade-off. But when I installed Linux and started using it more than Windows, I consider that my year or the Linux desktop. When the only thing I booted Windows for was to launch Steam.
2017 for me!
(I had been using Linux on some systems since 2002 and first tried it in the late '90s, but 2017 was the year in which I ditched Windows even on my gaming machine, permanently.)
Every Year Is The Year Of The Linux Desktop!
mine was last year
mine is this year!
And for many - it will be 😀
I read it in my head in his voice.
