    I actually don’t tell people about it unless they ask for some reason or it comes up. Which as you can imagine rarely happens.

    Funny side effect is I had many people use my PC quickly for things. Noone ever comments on things looking different. Do they not notice? Do they not care? I don’t know. Maybe it’s so superior it’s beyond their comprehension.

      When I first started using it, I definitely had the urge to tell people I know about it. The more I think about it, I tend to do that with anything I find that is a significant improvement, at least in my eyes, from whatever I used before.

      If you have a standard looking desktop and use a common web browser it’s not going to matter to 99% of users.

        As someone who’s not using qwerty, this never happens to me (regardless of OS) - people take one look at my keyboard and then go find their own computer. Which I count as a win-win.

          Same - though my keycaps are still qwerty at first glance, people usually don’t get much further than a few keystrokes into a Google search before they decide not to bother!

      I worked doing support for public highschools. I remember when the government changed everything to Ubuntu to cut costs. Some didn’t like it but I had some to say to me “hey this windows version is better” 🤣
