I don't think Windows, Mac, Android, iOS, whatever is "ready yet" either. operating systems are always in development. There are things I can do on my linux machine that I can't do on my windows machine, and vice versa.

Linux is ready, but not the professional software devs. Literally only thing stopping me from fully switching
For me it's the multiplayer games, godamm anticheat
That's why WSL is still king. You can do all your work, play all your games and still use your flavor of Linux. I even do my dev work out of it when there's no compliance requirements
Windows With WSL is just Mac but bad.
Desktop => Linux
Laptop => Mac
Then run games natively or with proton
Nope. Fucking spyware bullshit with a hint of Linux is absolutely not king. The fact that the OS allows kernel level anticheat is so stupid that it almost couldn't be anything besides malicious.
People who are like this today, tried to install red hat 5/6 using popular mechanics magazine as an instruction booklet and with floppy disks
Either that or they tried to install Open BSD once and survived: https://xkcd.com/349/
By all standards, a completely understandable outcome
It like the endless and useless fight between Android and iOS fan boys, it's much simpler than that, you use what you like/comfortable with, you don't need to convince anyone how right you are and how wrong they are, never really understood this weird behaviour from supposedly well educated people. You enjoy Linux, good for you , you like windows, kodus, you're mac person have at it .
I would agree with you, if it wasn't for the apple people trying to push everyone to join the cult because of the walled garden
Look hereβs one in the wild!
