It always feels like some form of VR tech comes out with some sort of fanfare and with a promise it will take over the world, but it never does.

      I’m not even a “regular user” per se, just not a software dev. I’m a network administrator working in a data center. I think a lot of FOSS devs think their users are like themselves, they love to tinker and don’t mind if their PC is a project. And sometimes I do like to tinker, but sometimes I need a computer to be a tool, not an end in itself, and desktop Linux rarely serves in that capacity.

        Weird considering I need my desktop to just be a tool as well, and Mint really does that for me. Just my experience tho.
