Statcounter reports that Windows 11 continues to lose its market share for the second month in a row. Windows 10, meanwhile, is gaining more users and is now back above the 70% mark.

I guess that kinda makes sense.

But we'll, Ubuntu was basically the average computer user's introduction to Linux (even if it kinda sucks now), I kinda think it could still do the job fairly well... only for those users to switch to a potentially better distro.

Opening the command prompt in windows is considered 'hacking' these days. Using Ubuntu is a big leap.

Oh, I use it quite a lot.

Once I spent a few days with Ubuntu, I had a very strong reliance on the terminal for simply installing stuff (because I wanna avoid that Snap Store), it takes some time to learn, but I don't think it's that difficult.
