Hah. I guess. I mean, I can tell you that on my last run of "is Linux viable now" I stepped through Mint, was frustrated about how it interacted with my hardware and did end up on a Manjaro KDE install that did pick up most of my newer hardware better.

It still was very far from perfect and definitely way more finicky, so I still would say not a mainstream daily driver (and I'm back to defaulting to Windows anyway). I genuinely don't care how Linux gets there, but it needs to get there to be viable.
