If it's always the case that there's never been a better time to switch to Linux, and we can assume the trend will continue, that means that there will always be a near future time where it will be better to switch to Linux than it is right now. That means it's better to switch to Linux later.

"This year is the year of Linux!"

The reason you don't see headlines mentioning Linux is because they are a tiny minority that nobody cares about.
So if how good of a time it is to switch to Linux is always on an upward trajectory, then wouldn't waiting to switch be the best thing to do?
I would say no. Because the tolerability of maintaining the status quo with Microsoft has been on an ever steepening downward trajectory.
care to diagram that sentence for me?
Doesn't really need a diagram. They're simply saying that, if you assume that the benefit/ease/etc. of switching to Linux is constantly increasing, then the best time to switch would always be at some later time, because it will always be easier/more beneficial/etc. in the future.
Micro$oft is the best advertsiter for Linux!
The fact we're still on Windows should tell you something about Linux.
So I switched to Linux a couple of weeks ago, got fedora set up, connected to WiFi and then set up proprietary Nvidia drivers. It wanted to reboot to so whatever is needed with secure boot.
When it came back I couldn’t use the internet or get it to connect again.
I’m a software engineer and a massive nerd. It ain’t as easy as just switch and problem solved.
Now it did get me interested in setting it up again with Arch, but let’s not pretend Linux is anywhere near as user friendly as MacOS or Windows. It is for nerds and will always be that way because it doesn’t just work out of the box.
Kinda sick of seeing all the disingenuous arguments that are pro Linux.
neither fedora nor arch are ever seriously recommended as a beginner linux distribution though...

Since leaving Windows for personal use in 2007, each and every new thing MS has done has validated that decision.
