The computer savvy folks don’t need to be reminded. The non savvy folks who don’t have time to learn Linux are stuck with windows/apple.

Many tech-savvy people just haven’t made the switch to Linux - often out of convenience rather than capability. Focusing on broader adoption first could make it easier to introduce Linux to less technical users later.

Yeah, I haven't switched cause I just haven't felt like I've had the time

Yeah I've only switched two of the 20 I need to do. It'll probably be months after Win10 loses support before I get it all done.

still have game holdouts that need windows, waiting until they are dropped by the friend group
