PewDiePie made a video on why he installed Linux and explained why everyone should do it too. Due to his number of followers, this might be the year of the Linux Desktop? Hooray?

Currently the bar to installing it is in the tech savvy area. If you have enough knowledge about computers to be a gamer you can be a linux user. Of course if you have to ask your SO or child for help with a computer, its not for you but tbh windows is also too complicated for some people. Once you have it installed, someone with 0 computer knowledge will find mint easier than windows for example.
