Re: Is Linux fighting back?


I think many people will just use their phones more instead of personal computers and leave other needs to their work (or their spouses) computers which will remain with Windows.

Re: Why Cloudflare CAPTCHAs to even see the forum??

Re: Qeustion about update cycle [Solved]
