Linux is a prime example of a technology that was at first far behind its proprietary counterparts but eventually dominated and nearly extinguished all non-free competitors.

For very specific uses. Linux is not a good options for general computers used by everyday people. That experience is still owned by large corporations.

There are only two cases when you can't use Linux as you daily driver:

    * You must use proprietary software not supporting Linux
    * You must use a device with proprietary drivers not supporting Linux

For me, it works flawlessly, since I avoid both cases.
