I think microsoft's #windows hasn't got enough competition. I don't mean #linux isn't good enough competition, I mean consumer-facing products like #laptops and #desktops are sold with #Window11 preinstalled instead of #ubuntu 24.04

There are some big-name manufacturers that provide Linux distros, but they don't really market it all that well.

There were enough people actively warning, but (almost) no one listened....
