Could it be? Is it time?

Is it finally the year of the Linux desktop?

Linux is a great way to spend more time customizing your computer than using it. I'm sure there are lots of people in this community that just roll with whatever defaults KDE or Gnome has, but there's _also_ lots of people who consider installing and configuring a minimal tiling window manager to be a Friday night well spent. I think PewDiePie kind of proves my point in this video too.

meh, it's a phase for post people.

regarding me... I went through my openbox/fluxbox/i3/ratpoison/stumpwm/etc phase when i was a teenager but nowadays i run a largely stock XFCE desktop (i just have a few more icons in my top bar and a few custom launchers in my right-click menu)... But nowadays i use the computer more than i customize it.

I spent a day customizing my current Linux build 1.5 years ago (installed i3, drivers, a bunch of scripts, customized toolbars) and never had to customize anything again. I just use it.

I like that Linux is finally getting some serious mainstream traction.

And people are starting to get the difference between "user" and "used" that Stallman used to talk about.
