 That's clearly not my point, I'm talking about desktop/laptop users and I'm speaking of casual users specifically. You can like whatever you want I don't care. I'm saying Linux can do what a casual user needs... That's literally all I'm saying.

 I agree. It's still irrelevant because of change in hardware preference by casual users. For you it's just evangelism, so it's a bit amusing to see you still not grasping this simple observation.

 I'm specifically speaking of casual desktop/laptop users, I used the word computer to generalize. It's not evangelism in the slightest. I'm not saying you are wrong about a lot of casual users of computers in the broader sense using phones. My point is specifically talking about casual desktop/laptop users.

 Those are a minority of laptop / desktop users nowadays. Now you get why x86 linux is unpopular?

 Again not my point. I'm not speaking of popularity. Even if they are a minority there are still casual laptop/computer users and that's what I'm talking about.
