Request for Official Linux Desktop App for ChatGPT
OpenAI Developer Community

It’s a bit hard to understand how it is that programmers are the main buyers of these tools, yet Linux desktop users are treated like thirdclass citizens.
According to the stackoverflow survey (https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2025/technology#1-computer-operating-systems), 27% of programmers said they use Ubuntu as their operating system, and if you add the rest of the distros, the percentage is over 50%.
Honestly, they seem like companies focused more on marketing and selling products to influencers, YouTubers, etc., than on programmers and the users of their tools.
@OpenAI_Support Instead of replying with a comment that borders on irony, it would be good to hear a release date.
