No, but not for a lack of trying. I have many relatively tech literate friends who simply refuse to use linux because they see it as uncool.
Yeah, my hubby uses Linux, too. And I know some of my blog readers are eager Linuxers as well.
I make people that work for/with me use Linux 
by purchasing hardware for them preloaded with Linux.
Well, Iām a member of āold peopleā, 70. Iāve been using Linux ever since I retired from the computer/networking field, as itās cheaper and easier to tailor than either Windows or MacOS. Of course, pior to Linux, as an āold peopleā type, I also used Windows, OSX, VMS, various flavors of Unix, CrayOS, a variant of NOS on the Cyber 70 mainframe, and RT-11 / RSX-11 on PDP-11s.
And after all that typing, I need some Benadryl ā¦

No sadly there are no Linux users around me.
Hi mateā¦ glad to find someone near my age (+60 here)
I see you are so experienced with computers and IT.
May I add, it is stable and usable. I do not spend most of my time trying to get it to work, it does not crash and does not crash every 10 minutes!
But I have to say, though Windoze has everything preinstalled and pre-configured (I see this is a con not a pro, no point of installing for example drivers of hardware I donāt have), though you do some effort and spend time installing/configuring after first installā¦ once done it just works.
Best of all, I donāt need to buy a new laptop every 2 years to be able to run the latest windoze).
I am running the latest EOS on 10 y/o laptop and its performance is even better than a brand new high end laptop.
The worst thing, if I buy a new windoze and install it on a laptop, if this laptop gets crushed/smashed I do not have the right to install again on another laptop, though it is only running/installed on one laptop.
So, assuming windoze will be performing like Linux I wonāt because they do not consider that I āownā what I āboughtā.

AFAIK this is inverse: Windows has some drivers preinstalled and others are auto detected by Windows Update, while on Linux the kernel contains drivers for almost anything except printers, Nvidia and Xbox controllers.

You are right for sure (given your experience).
Anywayā¦ my humble POVā¦ windoze is defective by design.
Thank you.
When can i start working for you
