I first discovered Linux in middle/highschool back when Ubuntu was the hot shit and they had that awesome Gnome 2 desktop. I loved the vibes, but didn't stick with it because I didn't know what to do. Then just over the years I'd occasionally install it for a few days and give it a shot, learning more and more, even installing Arch Linux once (back when it was actually a challenge).

Switching to Linux was inevitable for me, I think. As the years rolled on, Windows got worse and worse while my understanding/confidence with Linux got better and better. I don't remember what the final thing was that convinced me to finally go 100% Linux on all my devices, but I did around ~2017 or 2018 with zero regrets.

So I think that if there's a path for people to learn Linux at a comfortable pace, without the trauma of going all in, they'll also find it impossible to resist. The dynamic of Windows becoming worse while Linux becomes better is still holding strong.
