Microsoft has been the single most effective marketing asset for GNU/Linux distributions in recent years.

Android has been largely gutted and depends more and more on google play services, with few exceptions like some AOSP-based roms like lineageos, iodeOS, etc
I'm running Tumbleweed myself! Been very pleased overall. I believe OpenSUSE may have just cured my distro-hopping.
Lately I've been using OpenSUSE GNU/Linux and so far I've been relatively happy with. The installation process is simple and concise, and the system is rock-solid and easy to use.
I think this is the year. One of my long time Windows friends has recently decided to install Manjaro GNU/Linux after being fed up with forced reboots, updates that seem to overwrite settings, and constant bluescreens of death.
Great day to be a firefox user!
They called me crazy.
I am very thankful that I do not live in the United States. Even in Canada where telecommunications services are notoriously expensive, data caps on cellphone plans are rapidly becoming a thing of the past. Carriers like Freedom Mobile will simply throttle your speed instead of charging you a boatload of money once you pass your monthly data "limit".
Companies will bloviate on about how they care about the environment and want to reduce e-waste, but then do crap like this!
