Fwiw I’m in it too. I’m not going to say what year was the year of Linux on the desktop for me, but it wasn’t a meme yet. And I’ve continuously run an actively used Linux desktop (or mostly laptop) since, often at work but always at home. I unironically prefer it to Windows and Mac, which I also also daily drive and consider to be worse in most ways that matter to me.
I think desktop Linux gamers are right to cheer for the Steamdeck, as its success translates quite directly to an improved gaming experience on desktop Linux. So yeah, the reason this meme is so clear to me is because I see it in the mirror each morning.
I use Windows, MacOS, and Linux everyday but my primary desktop has been Linux since I moved from OS/2 in I think 1996 or so. I have been a Linux user since 1992.
I have not really been a gamer since the StarCraft days though.
I’m in this comment, and I’m okay with that.
It’s the year of the Linux desktop, y’all! Woohooohooo! Yeah! Rock on!
Fuck yeah! Just like last year!
Wait, I think that already happened with Android.
It’s the Year of the Linux Handheld squared, then. We win twice.

Quitters never win. Warp is the OS of the future, we just haven’t gotten there yet.
It wasn’t a meme yet? So like… 30+ years ago?
So like 30+ years ago.
