2020 or thereabouts was the year of the linux desktop. steamos came out which meant there was a lot of labor put into getting a proper compatibility layer for gaming. DEs were good enough by that point that your grandparents could use them. plus i heard they finally got the graphical installer mostly working, i think. meanwhile microsoft has been over-enshittifying their product with the assumption they have the same captive audience they had in 2008. i just don't think that's true anymore

sorry if this just restates the article i didn't read it
