I was talking to my dad about my job and how people don’t know how to use Linux. He said “Yeah, nobody uses that UNIX stuff anymore.”
Then I pointed out that his phone and his computer both run flavors of UNIX, since he’s been using Apple products since I made him switch by not supporting his issues with Windows, and that most of the websites and apps he’s using are running Linux on the backend.
then what did he say after that?
Nobody uses Linux guys, that shits for nerds
True. I use arch btw
Lol nerd
Woah, you are old. I use nixos btw
I got in trouble in a discussion about the most popular Linux distro when I said it’s obviously Android.
The ones that aren’t BSD-based, anyway, like for instance pfSense.
And 4.5% of the desktops.
At this rate it should reach 25% of them by 2043.
Actual desktops are going the way of the dodo for the mass market and Linux netbooks are quite popular. With Microsoft’s current strategy of making a product that is worse and worse for low powered devices, I honestly think it’ll happen sooner, except for businesses.
