could gnome kde take over windows in 26?

yes

>>107574529
kde maybe, but gnome devs are so far up their ass they won't listend to anyone

No. A best case scenario for Linux I think is maybe half of Apple's market share. OEM's can install a third-party Linux or their own Linux distro if they want and avoid getting hit with the Microsoft tax, sure. But if it ever looks like Linux is an actual threat to Windows then Microsoft can just reduce or remove the Windows fees for OEM's. That's probably why they're so aggressively moving towards a model where they make most of their OS money from spying on their users. If it came right down to it they could completely reverse the relationship and pay OEM's to offer Windows exclusively. Maybe with locked down hardware.

usecase for taking over?

What makes you think windows is a metric?

It's all the same broken faggotry. X11 is the straight white man's display server.

kde looks better and is shipped more frequently with wayland instead of x11 too. personally i hope cosmic kills gnomes userbase. gnome unironically looks like the lovechild of mac and windows 8, i really dont know how people look at it and go "yeah.. thats what I want". hell id use openbox, xfce, or cinnamon before I use gnome
>>
>>107574529
No. A 10-15% linux market share would be possible but extremely optimistic
>>
>>107574529
Gnome? Yes
KDE? Hardly doubt it
Cinnamon has better chances of succeeding than any of the other two if devs one day managed to fix the damn memory leaks.
