StatCounter reported that desktop Linux reached over 4% market share for the first time. I've used Linux for years. Here's why I think it's finally catching on with more people.

      I was hesitant on recommending this to my cousin who isn’t as tech savvy as I am. I recommended LMDE instead. I hope nothing goes wrong.

        In my experience: As far as you can get with any other distro. What do you think Arch requires a terminal for? Genuine question.
