Linux has over 6% of the desktop market? Yes, you read that right - here's how https://www.zdnet.com/article/linux-has-over-6-of-the-desktop-market-yes-you-read-that-right-heres-how/ by @sjvn
No, not 5%. #Linux currently accounts for 6% of the desktop market, according to US government records.
Yeah, I see DistroWatch number more like who was curious to check out what the heck is this distro this week. An article mentioning a lesser known distro will make people to check it up a bit and drives it's numbers up (at least that what I believe about the numbers).
Maybe we could convince distros to share how many unique users uses their core package repository to upgrade each week, we then had a centralized body that would present the numbers... but I guess that is too much work.
I used to look at the WikiStats sometimes, back in those days Linux was around 2% without the help of Android and ChromeOS, but the new WikiStats I don't see this break down on OS level anymore 😞
