Im sorry if you don’t understand what I’m trying to say, I think it’s because I have very poor English skills. I tried to say that people don’t want to have computer, which they need to install operating system before they can use it. And because almost every computer has Windows or macOS when you buy it, why would they want to start installing anything other? Only people who are keen on computers are willing to do that. I use Linux BTW.

Your English is good don't worry about it. What I meant to say is that we should stop talking about a hypothetical time when Linux would become mainstream, that's in the past. It's mainstream since at least since February 2022 when the Steam Deck became a commercial success.
