Yes I did stop using computers during that time. While I had my Amiga in school only nerds had PCs, so I didn’t get one, even though I was programming on my Amiga with AMIGABasic and so on. I guess it was mostly because I started doing normal teenager stuff once I was 16 like motorbikes, cars, playing music, going to the clubs, etc. so there was no time and no desire to use a computer. Only once everyone seemed to have internet at home I started feeling left out a bit. for some months I started usincgcomputers in Internet Cafes and then decided to get a used PC.
me too, but only since late 2022
Here is my operating systems timeline:
2024 ain’t over, you might switch to TempleOS…
Did you stop using a computer between 1994 and 2001? I feel like there’s some interesting story in there.

I actually feel bad for you using Linux before most stuff had measured. Font anti aliasing, font name, screen tearing, drivers, flatpaks etc.
You make an excel to track your operating system of choice for the year but don’t include the distro?!? For shame.
Ok, Ok, Ok, I added it now.
what’s between 1994 and 2001? MS DOS?
No, I just didn’t have a computer. I bought a MTX 80C and later a Ford Fiesta mk3, I also bought some Technics SL-1200 so I sould pretend to be a DJ:
In the end I just didn’t have the need nor time for a computer.
