Nonsense. For anyone paying attention, it's been the year of desktop Linux since KDE 3.5. And it's only getting better.

Well I work on the kernel for a living, so I feel like I have at least some idea. The quality of a distro on your hardware has nothing to do with it. I don't think you understood anything I said about why it's a failed segment.

Saying desktop is "dying" implies it will go away to the point of becoming insignificant. This is ridiculous - what would fill the gap for gamers, creators, professionals, business, and engineers? Tablets, gaming consoles and phones?

Shrinking segment, absolutely. Especially for the casual home-user segment. But leading with exaggerated flamebait is not welcome here, as I'm sure you are aware.
