You would switch from Windows because the Linux kernel has become so ubiquitous that all the software you need is now developed for it. That's the future that this makes me hopeful for.

Aren't we almost there with software being developed for the web instead of Linux?

It's only my plain text editor that still runs on my desktop, but even that runs on electron, hehe

I wish electron would die a thousand deaths. Even excel, word, ppt and skyp are being reimplemented in it (or something similar) and the result is not an improvement (for the user)
