Regardless of the negative aspects, Meta joining the Fediverse will definitely make the numbers of active users explode. This will probably bring the network and its concepts to many people and also a matter of public debate.

hits line of hopium

I mean.... Yo.. We have the steam deck bro. And that's going to get the linux desktop to 10% itself. And then Valve is going to re-release Steam Machines and VR 2.0. We're definitely going to have the year of the Linux Desktop

I do think the curve will be exponential when it does happen, so 10% is not nothing. also we have only had 10 or so years of an effort from the linux community to make it accessible. Till then every major distro was a DIY project.
