Not yet. But it’s not moving away from it. It needs a few huge global companies to migrate over. Their demand for enterprise software will drive large software developers over.
I hate putting it like this, but when Adobe finally releases photoshop, it’s all over for windows, and Linux will skyrocket.
You are not wrong about Adobe. That is one of the main reasons I see given by many tech-minded people still running Windows or macOS.
Gaming is so very close to having no barrier to entry. With Steam (and Proton), Heroic, and others like them, the ecosystem and ease of discover -> install -> run have made it at least as simple as on Windows.
I know the NVidia woes will soon be a thing of the past (see all the work concerning explicit sync), but I would still recommend using an AMD video card to anyone getting a computer to specifically run Linux. I’m at my wits end dealing with my NVidia card and I’m about to shell out the cash for an AMD so I can run Hyprland and all the things without any graphical glitches (ideally).

All big companies run on Linux server. The German gov will try to move to Linux again. I think things are moving forward steadily now.
Can you imagine running any server on windows? lol
