Look, no hate, but I always find these kinds of comments funny because I've been reading them for over twenty years.

It's not going to happen, certainly not in any significant numbers.

Hell, look at the fediverse. The vast majority of internet users find signing up to mastodon hard, let alone lemmy. How the hell are these people supposed to install linux, for example when they follow many an 'easy' linux installation guide, but then find Rufus isn't able to create a bootable USB stick in fat32? How are they supposed to verify their data, or hell change the bios settings when the guide they read gives them the wrong key to press to enter the bios? And then if by some miracle they do manage to install linux, you expect them to move away from all the apps they've grown used to? They'll try to install MS office on linux and blame this not working on linux.

TLDR: Gretchen! Stop trying to make mass linux adoption happen! It's not going to happen!
