One other factor that also influences Linux’ market share is that a lot of people just don’t use PCs anymore and rely only on smartphones. I assume that Linux users are less likely to stop using PCs completely than Windows Users are (or rather, that people who don’t even get into PCs would have been less likely to become Linux users if they did)
So it’s not just direct conversion from Windows to Linux, but also a higher retention of users somewhat.

lol wat
Also:
At this rate steam on linux will hit like 10% in a few years.
The general desktop marketshare of linux is slightly higher than the steam. Its at like 4.5% already

Exactly. People are talking about jumping ship from Windows to Linux after the recent update while regular people have moved to phones 10 years ago
Linux already won. Only people who don’t use it are losing.
Most corporate servers in general run Linux, let alone webservers. Intel literally used Minix without attribution in their Intel Management Engine, so technically every Intel chipset motherboard with an IME runs Linux. That’s basically every Intel motherboard since 2008.
Minix is a different (older) kernel from Linux: https://www.minix3.org/
I am reminded of that one time we went to lunch with one of our scrum masters and he actually said “why does linux even still exist anymore”.
I didn’t even get into all of that i just told him i switched my home pc to linux a few months ago lol
Remind me to kill myself if anyone ever gives me this as an official title
more like cum master, amarite??
i am so sorry. please forgive me ;w;that’s a much better title, I’d wear that with pride. don’t belittle cum by comparing it to that garbage.
Most complex life on earth owes its existence to cum in some form or another!
But does it run my vibrator?!?! It’s a fail if it doesn’t!
