2/3 mainstream consoles are BSD based too.
@Adubs wasn’t joking. OpenBSD is the GOAT and FreeBSD ain’t half bad either
If we count macOS and Playstations for BSD, then I count Android as linux desktop.

nah, Gentoo was released 2002. It took until 2003 for installation to complete.
So 2003 was doubly the YOTLD

USE=* is a bad idea
But i was running desktop linux at work in 1999?
I imagine you maintain a gist with all of those links.

Legitimately, this is getting better.
I bought an X470 taichi within weeks of release and had a better experience with Linux than I did with Windows.
Everything worked out of the box. Windows? Had issues getting it to even install - didn’t have an optical drive and Windows wouldn’t see the drivers on USB for the m.2 (maybe i was doing it wrong, but hey… definitely easier on linux).
Was actually one of the reasons (well, it was the last straw - it was gaming only before that) I quit Windows. Because install on my new hardware was a pain in the ass.

Same for the ultimate. Can’t comment on windows really but it ran completely fine on linux.

Exactly. The point of this nonsense is that it’s going to be adopted by the masses. Extreme doubt.
