See what Jack Wallen considers to be the biggest issue for Linux in 2020.
Enterprise-level companies embraced open source software even further, containers and the cloud became even more crucial to both businesses and consumers, the Linux community found a larger piece of the support pie from large manufacturers like Microsoft, and distributions continued to wow.
Prior to 2020, Linux and open source vulnerabilities were pretty easy to shrug off as anomalies.

If 2020 has taught us a lesson, it's to never take anything for granted, even the security of Linux and open source.
