"I can tell you one thing: time went to helping Linux rise in popularity. Okay, the death of Windows 10 also had something to do with that, but everyone in the business of covering Linux knew this would one day happen: the masses would finally realize that there is an alternative OS that's more reliable, safer, and easier to use."
"You see, atomic and immutable (those are not the same things, by the way) are the future of operating systems because they provide an experience that will always work. Atomic distributions basically ensure that no upgrade will result in system failure, a broken desktop, or unusable applications. That is important because people depend heavily on a dependable operating system. AerynOS does atomicity but not immutability."
Linux adoption is accelerating and momentum is expected to increase in 2026. The end of Windows 10 prompted many users to consider alternative operating systems perceived as more reliable, safer, and easier to use. Several Linux distributions are positioned for notable growth in popularity. AerynOS stands out for combining a fully atomic update model with a polished KDE Plasma desktop, though its installer may challenge newcomers. Atomic update models aim to prevent upgrade-induced system failures, broken desktops, or unusable applications. AerynOS implements atomicity without full immutability, avoiding a read-only core that can confuse users configuring outside their home directories.
