Linux runs people’s cars, phones, routers, sometimes even fridges. And don’t even get me started on servers. Linux is the most useful OS on the planet. The desktop is just another thing for it to conquer.
I’ve been tinkering with it since the late 90s and running it as my daily driver both at home and at work for nearly 20 years now. It’s extremely useful.
Linux has some of the best device compatability because it’s baked into the kernel. Don’t need to download a driver in most cases, just update the kernel.
Plus it’s known to be a great os for a developer. Also the apt repositories or other repos make installing an app on windows store look like a toddlers first steps in comparison.
Oh and if you use an android phone then you’re using a Linux kernel.
The foundation of the Android platform is the Linux kernel. For example, the Android Runtime (ART) relies on the Linux kernel for underlying functionalities such as threading and low-level memory management.

You’re wrong though. Linux kernel might be running on all of these things, but Linux desktop OSes do not because they’re shit.
Imagine being this passionate about being wrong.
And why are they so shit in your opinion?

It is only rivaled in its uselessness by templeOS. The only useful distro is tails which is good for drugs.
Your knowledge is as unique as it is correct.
Stupid take.
