I still can't believe Linux only have 5% of OS market share

I can. Do you really think computer savvy people are the majority of computer users?

You don't really need any skills to use modern Linux. I would argue that it's easier to use than Windows for someone who has basic googling skills. Windows have an annoying habit of getting in the way of the user and making things much harder than they need to be. For example, needing to use the registry editor for basic configuration options.

No regular Joe will ever need to use regedit, you're thinking with yourself as reference, the majority of computer users aren't going to configure shit. They just get a computer with Windows installed and they start using it.
