Linux was improving before and continues to improve. The fact the top PC gaming handheld is a Linux offering is pretty telling and shows just how much improvement has happened and will continue to happen.

A much bigger snail pace than before is most accurate.

It changed and got better and better all thought those years too...

I personally am extremely concerned about the fact that Windows is already at version 11 but Linux has not even made it to version 7 yet.

The version numbers are arbitrary anyways.

So you are saying there is no reason not to double Linux to version 12 in order to out-do Windows?

Why stop there? We could go as high as 95 or 98

What are you on about? 225 is not a leap year.

Change is not always for the best. I used to like Linux for the stability.

Lol right. Wayland is still technically a stability downgrade from X11.

Sometimes it is for the best.
