OS reveal party and it's a penguin.

That still seems high to me but actually checking the StatCounter website... it has more or less been steady at 5-ish% for three years?

Year of the Linux desktop

Linux is freedom. It's imperfect, fun and yours. It teaches you while helping you do your computing, creative and fun tasks. If you're even the least but curious I encourage you to try it out.

Pretty certain the rate of increase will accelerate over years. Even moreso outside of the USA. Good news for getting more attention to other open source software not just the kernel and core OS utils.

I've actually been using Bazzite-gnome-nvidia image on my main desktop for the past few weeks and I have to say it's very slick.

My main issue with it is with scaling disabled everything seems slightly big or spaced out in comparison to when I ran windows? I've read up and it maybe has something to do with the default fractional scaling but I checked and I'm at 100%.

Other than that I'm very happy with it!

I'm helping!

Just put Mint on my 2-in-1! So far so good, except my volume buttons don't work, and I have to manually toggle the on screen keyboard for text entry if I detatch the keyboard cover.
