      Oh, give it time.

      I’m not sure if I should say I use linux or not:

      • Gaming desktop - windows.
      • Laptop - Macbook.
      • Work machine (programming) - windows.
      • Servers running the code I write - mostly linux.

        You do use it. You just don’t think it’s the equivalent of Jesus Christ of operating systems that will absolve you of the ‘sin’ of using non-FOSS software.

        the vast majority of Linux use is on server or server-adjacent things and unless you’re running a home server, there really isn’t a practical benefit to for home use.

          Ha, fair enough! It just feels like sort of a dodge in this kind of setting with a sort of implied bias towards linux on the desktop.
