Dang, up a percent in a year? That actually is pretty notable for Linux. I know it’s gotten easier to install and use (easier distros), but could this be more a shift to mobile over windows or macos?
Title needs an update to include “desktop”. Linux market share is much, much, higher.
I finally made the switch recently. Windows kept getting worse, and worse, and worse. Every day I felt like I had to fight it more to just do anything. I’ve been mainly a Windows user my entire life and I just couldn’t stand to use it any more.
I couldn’t be happier. Every game I play on steam just works. I’m installing mods and updating config files deep in the magical proton depths and it just works. A clean install of the operating system is actually a clean place to start. I’m telling everyone I know.
A 1 year increase in market share from 3.18% to 4.55% is not a 1.37% increase, it’s a 43% increase!
