I've had the same hope since I started using Linux, back in 1994.

Driver support is better, and no X11 Modelines, which is nice.

Since '95 here... I'm just happy I don't have to visit a library to get 0.1% as far as I can today with a simple search query. We've got it good now, all things considered. I'm sure others feel differently, but I cannot complain.

I can complain, and I do it all the time, especially on internet forums. It's not my fault other people haven't fixed my complaints, even though I've offered no assistance. That's their fault.

People say "you've got it good now", or "you're not helping", or "show us the source code", or "First world problems", or "I wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire".

These people think I'm some sort of an entitled, self-righteous, hypocritical, bleep-hole.

Jack Handey “Lowering my Standards” vibes (a very amusing short essay).

Thanks, I'll take that as a compliment :)

As a kid, I remember his Deep Thoughts SNL bits, as an adult, I bought a couple of Jack Handy's Deep Thoughts books.

In hind sight I'd say that was more The Onion "People Don't Like It When You Call Them Stupid"

Well you're in luck, because 2024 is the year of the Linux desktop.

Every year is the year of the Linux desktop.

Sure, emulating Windows games via Proton....

I guess Windows was never a real desktop OS either because no developer bothered porting the entire NES library to it.

They wrote new games for it, there was no need to emulate NES.

Finally!
