I just visited a MediaMarkt and a Spanish guy decided to ask me whether the USB he wanted to buy is enough - I didn't know what for.

Then, he came up to me again. He asked me whether the 512 GB USB is sufficient to install Linux (Mint) on, so that he'd use it "next to" his Windows 11 installation - as he really didn't like Windows 11. Wild.

Not sure if that was the result of #endof10 or because Windows 11 in itself is a great advertisement for Linux on its own, but free software as a subject of interest is a largely online subculture IMHO. It is weird to me when that subject "leaks" onto ordinary IRL situations, but definitely welcome.
"Me encanta Linux Mint."
Also, I didn't know why he asked me in particular.
