Lemme interrupt you, what You're referring to is actually a funny little penguin in combination with a wildebeest.
I hated the “lemming” association to Lemmy until I started seeing the “Let me” association.
They should add a Bill Gates racecar to Super Tux Kart. It could be covered with ads, and so bloated that it never actually wins a race.

I'll put my bets on the penguin.
Win what competition? Userbase, profits, data mining, ease of use? We must know the question before the answer.
It used to be, but I'm getting ready to try something new cuz Ubuntu isn't working very well on my laptop, in spite of having used it for a decade.
Having held the crown once but not anymore still kinda counts in my book.
Good luck trying out those other distros. I heard that some mint flavored one is pretty nice.
I wish my login screen didn't take 10s to process my password, correct or not. Why does my Intel wifi just drop on its own so often, where no other devices do? Other Wayland stuff as well.
Sigh.
My WiFi is genuinely worse than 2G speeds at times. And by "at times", I mean 3/5 of the time.

Idk man, I use all three major operating systems where they are appropriate (I like my MacBooks for dev, I know apple sucks now and all but I still prefer them).
I’m way way past my zealot days of trying to get people to convert to Linux, and windows isn’t really as dogsjit was it was in the early 00s… not to say it’s perfect, but it plays my games great.
Home lab and work infrastructure? All Linux, in various flavors.
You should try playing games on Linux with proton. It's gotten so good in the past 3 years that I have not wanted to play games on Windows since COVID.
I have only seen games not work on Linux when it required a rootkit and I don't care to have that installed outside of a sandbox anyway.
If there is still a place for windows, it's for games that require root kits and for the handful of specialized software that won't run on Linux.
Even when a company forces me to use a windows laptop, I just install arch in wsl2 and do all my work there.
I need it for my engineering apps unfortunately.. but even then, I run windows in kvm lol
I think its a thing from person to person, for me linux works best for dev, idk it just integrates better. :p

Yep I get it. I’ve been on macOS for 15 years because that’s what Silicon Valley companies hand out generally, so I just got used to it. I’m sure I could feel comfortable using desktop Linux after a while, I just haven’t since like 2002
I prefer to think of Tux as one of those huge albino penguins from At the Mountains of Madness
Uhh. I'm not sure I understand the meme... I'm not trying to create a war here, but Windows has very clearly won has it not? It makes way more money, has much higher user share, has much higher recognition Etc. ... I'm not sure this meme makes much sense.

My colleague asked me to use Zorin OS or Pop OS as I am not good with coding and stuff. I have to say Zorin OS is so much like Mac OS. All my laptops and desktop PC is now running Zorin OS
