95% to go

I'd be satisfied with +47%
Or a three-way tie, but another player would have to enter the field, as Apple clearly isn't interested.

I'll be excited if Linux hits 20% total market share, which is about where Apple sits last time I checked. That would put Linux squarely as a contender for normies.

BSD, perhaps. Or maybe Redox eventually.

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

I would too. 

I’d like to see windows shrivel up and die though.
