Games run faster with LMDE6 than they did with Windows 10 on my 5800X3D/7900XTX PC.

Oh dear Microsoft, you had everything and you pissed it away again

I last checked in December. At that time Linux had an all time high usage rate of 5.6%. For a platform that's existed since the early 90s, 5.6% is the highest they'd ever achieved.

So I wouldn't exactly say microsoft EVER pissed it away. They still have, and always have had, dominant market share of users. And they do so by charging hundreds of dollars as opposed to a free alternative.

They had internet explorer dominance, they pissed that away

They had PC gaming OS dominance, they're now pissing that away

That's still without NTSYNC patches, right?
