If you ever wanted to figure out what is holding back Linux (and FOSS) from people’s desktops, then you should probably read this. *Now*. Aaron Seigo (a past speaker at FOSS.IN), has really hammered it home, but without using the offensive approach the media usually uses when talking about Linux on the desktop (“as in [...]
