Who knows, 2015 may also be the year of the linux desktop, unless HURD is also ready for prime time.

    What I was getting at, maybe poorly, is that the online forums can influence users to find a more palatable alternative, and can discourage new comers. As the user-base shrinks, the project (OS, language, or whatever) moves toward irrelevance.

    BTW, it wasn't just the online communities. The behavior was exhibited elsewhere. There was a quite unfortunate arrogance of the few that worked against the interest of the many.
