Lacros on Chromebooks transition plan won’t be qui...
That is why "The Year of Desktop Linux" has already happened, as VMs being shipped in macOS and Windows.
Interessly enough there are more of those at FOSDEM, than people carrying proper GNU/Linux laptops.

I went to fosdem for the first time this year. I had heard the stories, but most laptops I saw did appear to be running linux. Though maybe it is because I don't care about the big web dev and related rooms.

Natively, or as VM running full screen?

Pretty sure most were running natively, but idk, I didn't ask them.

How many are using laptops from their employer (possibly with mandatory OS)?

Idk, but from the people I know that were there, most of them were running their own laptops, though that might not have been a representative sample.

How many of those attend FOSDEM with work laptops?

Would sound logical if their employer pay them to work on open source stuff?
