I keep seeing the "it's good for prototyping" argument they post here, in real life.
For non-coders it holds up if you ignore the security risk of someone running literally random code they have no idea what does.
But seeing it from developers, it smells of bullshit. The thing they show are always a week of vibing gave them some stuff I could hack up in a weekend. And they could too if they invested a few days of learning e.g. html5, basic css and read the http fetch doc. And the learning cost is a one-time cost - later prototypes they can just bang out. And then they also also have the understanding needed to turn it into a proper product if the prototype pans out.



Nah. Gonna stick to gaming on my GNU GUIX through Proton thanks.
Linux is clearly not only good enough, but simpler too.
It's just a ton of perception, habits and sales pipelines that need moving now. If electronics stores started putting out Linux Gaming PCs, nobody buying them would be worse off than Windows. That has been true for well over a year.
