I'm looking forward to the Year of the Linux desktop ™️

Right now, my Windows 10 installation is pretty bloatless and is easily revertable when an update wants to change things. However I'm definitely looking for a more mainstream Linux solution because I know these times won't last.

We would need large companies and developers to start making their applications for linux and right now thats very hard because linux has 2500 different package managers and no one wants to maintain version of their apps for even the top 5 linux packaging methods, so unless that changes they will continue to make windows/mac only apps

The rise of Flatpaks will alleviate this issue, I think. Build a Flatpak for your app and you're good to go.
