I've never liked Lunduke. To me he was an opportunists playing both
sides of the debate between Linux and other operating systems.
As I have not watched him in a few years maybe things have changed but in the
past he seemed to focus on minor things that maybe most Linux users would
not encounter or if they did, easy work around would exist.
He is interesting but not my cup of whisky.
I'm a MX Linux user running kde.
