    I was not explaining my logic nor my beliefs, just describing my smol sample (introvert!), as a btw fun fact.

    But I was under the impression that there is no distinguishable difference between which OSs use programmes vs non-programmers (and the other way around).
    Perhaps bcs I fail to se any specific connection between the two. But yes, my logic would be that both types use and are used by both to roughly the same extent.

    (Haha, exactly same experience with relatives - forced them on Linux, never had anything non-trivial to fix since then.)

      I’m a programmer! I use Linux and Windows. In fact, I’m now in my second job in a Microsoft shop (and no, neither were/are .NET…). And I’ve had exactly zero jobs where I was issued or allowed to use a Linux machine.

        Yeah, wtf, what did Linux ever do to the great furry community sys admins?

        Our group is still fully on Windows all the things (except like two virtual servers), desktops all run W10.

        I will again plead in this years strategy to not upgrade to W11, if for nothing else ‘moral reasons’.
        I’ll be the only one tho.
