It is 2024 but i still can’t use linux because i have just way too many apps and utillities wich only work on windows (or windows+mac os)… i would love to switch but i don’t think it is realistic

Also even though gaming is getting better it still isn’t perfect

All of this because of the lock in cycle of windows: users can’t leave because most software is not for linux and developers can’t leave because most users are still on windows… so my gues is that in 5 years everyone is still on windows 11 or 12 or idk what version

The truth is that the US doesn’t really do anything against monopolies or atleast not enough and microsoft gets away everytime or atleast for too long now
