Clickbaity title on the original article, but I think this is the most important point to consider from it:
After getting to 1% in approximately 2011, it took about a decade to double that to 2%. The jump from 2% to 3% took just over two years, and 3% to 4% took less than a year.
Get the picture? The Linux desktop is growing, and it’s growing fast.
dual booting would be a pain in the ass, both setting it up and post-setup
Setup is piss easy, just hit install. The real pain is the random Windows update that will wipe all boot entries that aren’t Microsoft’s
Dual booting is dumb easy with most Linux installers. I’ve been dual booting two different Linux partitions for years.
Do you use different harddrives for your partitions? Because that might be the reason you dont have that much problems. From what I heard windows likes to wipe all boot entries that aren’t windows and are located on the same drive.
Nope same hard drive, but windows hasn’t touched my PC in nearly a decade, so that’s probably why I never have issues.
I think the best solution is to just have Windows on other drive, that way it shouldn’t touch Linux drive’s bootloader.
That was the conclusion that pushed me over.
