WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK /g/!? Will be 2017 the year of the Luni

As soon as Wayland becomes default on Ubuntu, we'll see Linux make some great growth among laptops.

But muh Mir!

Exactly, YotLD never

Subtract all the girl koders and nu male "geek" phony coders and Mac's share would go to 0%.

Subtract all pajeets and old IBM programmers and Window's share would go to 0%.

I'd rather see hibernate, suspend and wireless configuration not breaking in new and interesting ways in every kernel release.

>implying i would want normies to use linux
no thanks. there are absolutely no benefits to it

>>58395117
Thats just an ubuntu problem.

>>58395119
Linux already is for normies. Switch to some BSD if you wanna be special.

Xorg is a pain in the ass to setup on Gentoo, how much easier will wayland be?

>>58394907
For a lot of fields that's always been the case.

I work in data analyst and my stack would not run in either mac or Windows.

It'll become the year of the desktop when the desktop "dies" and becomes a niche thing only nerds use, which is about now... so possibly...

LOL. Silicon Valley, which is almost entirely Caucasian and South Asian males, is jam-packed with Macs.

>Subtract all pajeets and old IBM programmers and Window's share would go to 0%.

Most software engineers I've worked with have run Windows as their primary OS. Then a variety of VMs or remote shells for any Linux/server work.

Most companies end up with IT policies that make it much less of a headache to simply run Windows and run other stuff in a VM.

>install upgrade with new kernel, Xorg, Mesa, etc. hoping for improved GPU power saving support and fewer GL issues
>suspend no longer breaks wifi and graphics, yay
>screen backlight no longer turns on after hibernate, have to suspend machine once afterwards
>wifi GUI stuck trying to turn machine into hotspot
>tooltips render as black boxes + some pixel garbage the first time they appear

Everything is a pain in the ass to setup on Gentoo, that's the point.

Only if you are mentally incompetent.

Nobody said it was hard, just a pain in the ass. Stop projecting.
It's like making fire by rubbing two sticks together vs using a lighter.
