2024 is the Year of Linux on the Desktop, at least for my boyfriend. He's running Windows 7 right now, so I'll be switching him to Ubuntu in a few days. Ubuntu was chosen because Proton is officially supported in Ubuntu.

Agreed! Way better. I just hate how 'viable' is such a moving target. You can always find SOMETHING to dismiss it with. Linux is 'unviable' because of some random game that doesn't work or because of some new feature in the latest whizbang. If that is viable we'll never be there.

Viable is when it meets one's needs sufficiently, not when it can do some impossible list of tasks perfectly. Viable isn't perfect, and I hate it when people pretend it is.
