From my experience, most folks are either Windows-users or else they're Linux-hoppers. When someone jumps from Windows for whatever reason, it tends to signify that they're not content with anything less than what they consider "perfection". Windows spies on you! It's resource heavy! Slow! Hard to navigate in Explorer! Whatever their gripe is -- and it's often several things -- they decide to change over to Linux...
So they start with Mint or Ubuntu... but it's too much like Windows! Then to LinusXYZdistro which promises to be 1/10th as resource extensive -- but it won't work with their microphone or camera or headphones or.... So on to the next version which is supposed to be better -- except it doesn't do hardware acceleration right or screen scaling.... And on to...
Always looking for *perfection*, and never learning to work around any of the existing issues which they dislike. You show me a guy who says, "I use Linux," and I'll show you a guy who's used at least a half dozen different versions of Linux.
