    Unless computer companies include Linux with their PC’s, it will never get general adoption.

    No average user will follow instructions on how to boot Linux distro installer, especially when there are multiple steps needed to do so, such as on UEFI systems.

      This is the real answer. Defaults are king. Most people don’t even bother to customize their settings on any platform, let alone change platforms.

      Very few people go out of their way to install a different OS than the one a device came with. Many people don’t even realize you can.

      Ok, which version of Linux should go onto mass devices for users?

      I’m just going to grab some popcorn and stand over here…
