Reply with dubs are predictions of what Linux distros will be in 5 years

5% market share

0% market share

CentOS ruling them all as standard go-to distro instead of Ubuntu LTS after horrid mismanagement at both Debian and Canonical which got infested by sjw's, driving both to ground.

I'll go crazy and suggest 6%

5.7442%

20% by a still unnamed chinese company that copies apple and uses open source linux systems to give freedom to the chinese.

100% virgin neckbeard share

go down below 0.50%

on par witt macos

I would assume there would have to be some catastrophic failure or security bug with Windows for this to happen. Some kind of self replicating, rapid malware with the ability to leak information.

It could block Windows updates for other machines with a MITM attack, and then infect them too.

even normies like free (as in freedom and free beer) software, plus as the market goes: "if you always fuck over the consumer, the consumer will fuck you over back (eventually)"

you overestimate normies, they don't give a shit about free, they will willing pay for something if they are familiar with it, they wont change unless absolutely necessary. also "muh software" argument would be used a lot.

does CentOS even have updates? I mean like not having to reinstall

we already have pretty great distros that are normie friendly, the next step is simply an advertising campaign (perhaps community kickstarted) and then we focus it on just SUSE, RedHat, and Ubuntu.

Linux: YOUR OS

or some other slogan like that.

If you offer normies free beer and you're not a celebrity or someone they know they'll think it's drugged or bad.
If you're the "friendliness virgin loser computer nerd" (or at least in their eyes) they'll trust it less.
But they'll probably still let you take care of their computer but not install Linux on it.

It's gonna happen with all these intel exploits, just wait.
Just like in 1990's with that one worm w/e it was called. every fucking system is gonna be open.

How do you think Steve Jobs, a literal nobody nerd in his garage, sold his OS when normies knew nothing about it?

That's right, advertising. Advertising could make literal shit marketable so long as it looks nice on camera. Linux is much better than MacOShit or M$Dumb, and the advertising will have marketable returns as long as its sold on store shelves. MS and Mac don't do ads so if the big three started advertising now, they could easily seize a large portion of the market and make lucritive returns while still following the FOSS/FLOSS way and making the user freer. I'm suprised no one has taken the steps to do it yet.

It be a fully feature GNU system (Hurd kernel) and Doctor Richard M. Stallman will win the science nobel prize.
