jack,

Welcome to the circlejerk thread

yagav50850,

What?

jack,

Our monthly jerkoff to Linux numbers

creation7758,

Nah. The data is from 2022. Still milking last year’s numbers

Lamb,

Unknown is TempleOS.

philpo,

That’s more for the Christian fellas, I think.

xtremeownage,

But, it has no network connectivity! That is against God’s will.

(Thus, no telemetry either)

Very interesting os though. Lots of very cool concepts

Xavier,

In Canada, Apple is taking most of the increase, I wish Linux was more prevalent but I’m happy to see the downward slope for Windows:

I just hope asahi Linux takes of because the M3 looks sick but I’ll be fucked if I get sucked into the apple ecosystem. I’d rather be forced to use Windows on arm.

  • Dogeek,

    My guess is click farms with some unknown custom made os that skew that data?

    That also might be a source of Linux users hence the relatively high market share of the OS?

    Not to mention that India still has a lot of call centers (some for scams) that may use Linux because it’s free (compared to a windows license)

    radioactiveradio,

    A lot of people who work in those call centres are uneducated and don’t know shit about tech, they’re only parroting off a script. In those call centres they use windows 7 still and don’t even know about the existence of linux. Also piracy is big in India so they don’t care if linux is free. And most of all their victims/“customers”(old people) don’t use linux so they have no reason to either. It’s just the fellow Indian nerds using Linux.

    Molecular0079,

    Yeah, if you look at some of those YouTube channels that scam the scammers, you’ll usually see that the scammers are all running Windows.

    radioactiveradio,

    I saw one where a guy used linux mint and the scammer used the usual tree command but other than that he knew fuck all what he was doing. He was tryna look for notepad. It was hilarious

    nossaquesapao,

    Statcounter works by collecting and processing user agent strings from browsers accessing sites that use their analytics. Unknows OSes are probably the ones who don’t give that info.

    As an Indian myself this makes me happy :D

    Beware that what OP posted is old data. India is over 14% on Linux as of October 2023.

    Wispy2891,

    And from 2026 thanks to Microsoft it will raise more as I can’t possibly imagine everyone buying new computers just for windows 11

    Bene7rddso,

    Me neither, but what I can imagine is people running an unsupported OS forever, like they did with XP and probably 7

    TheAnonymouseJoker,
    @TheAnonymouseJoker@lemmy.ml avatar

    And 10 is extremely secure compared to the jungle that was XP, and 7 was barely doing well, so post EOL usage will remain high. Most people will just airgap their Win10 machines.

    KISSmyOS,

    How was this measured? Just asking cause a lot of PCs are sold with Linux there cause it’s cheaper and the user immediately slaps a pirated Windows on after purchase.

    Blackmist,

    Browser stats.

    wopod77356,

    1000018735Indians

    TheOakTree,

    Hahaha they did a racism so funni

    wopod77356,

    Fuck off streetshitter

    TheOakTree,

    It must be hard to make your way through the world with a shatteringly low IQ. Unfortunately for you, one does not have to be Indian to object to racism… so we can confirm that your cognition is at rock bottom.

    I guess that would explain why you act like such a bottom-feeder, spewing so much garbage because that’s all you like to eat.

    This was fun to type, thanks for the opportunity! Go fuck a cactus :D

    moriquende,

    People will seriously believe anything just to feel superior. No wonder most people spewing bullshit like this are losers in dire need of feeling like they’re worth something.

    wopod77356,

    It’s facts

    Tokyyo,

    I wonder how many of them are using Kali Linux

    Sygheil, (edited )
    @Sygheil@lemmy.world avatar

    Looks good, distro forums will be the new XDA.

    “sAr, when linux karnal 6.9 OC boLTE?”

    “I installed all DEs and on my computar now not boot”

    “When debian update sar?”

    fafok20662,

    Indians must be restricted from using the internet to prevent this. Giving them access to the internet was a mistake.

    Sygheil, (edited )
    @Sygheil@lemmy.world avatar

    The general populace using these shouldn’t have or perhaps gone through some fundamentals and not joining the trend/hype of modifications to just to look cool (and going to complain about issues later on and rant like hell), there are few who knew what they are doing and contributing to the development community.

    SoaringDE,

    Oh my god please touch grass

    fafok20662,

    SIR

    radioactiveradio,

    Someone let a redditor loose in the fediverse.

    sag,

    As an Indian, I never ask someone to help me set up my Linux, understand its usage, or troubleshoot any issues. Instead, I read the entire wiki or search the web to find a solution on my own. If I still can’t find any help, I move on and forget about that.

    Sygheil,
    @Sygheil@lemmy.world avatar

    Splendid, keep it up!

    30p87,

    And if you do ask someone, your grammar is on point.

    KISSmyOS,

    If I have an issue with Linux, I look for a tutorial on Youtube. Most of the time the best result is a video of an Indian kid half my age who explains exactly what I need in a concise easy to understand manner, while typing every word they say into notepad.

    fafok20662,

    And they still shit on the streets

    Vanshaj,

    There are a million things I could write here, but thats futile I guess.

    FleaCatcher,

    Are you in a caste that allows Internet usage?

    Vanshaj,

    Internet is not restricted anywhere here, but a sensible use is appreciated of everything.

    fafok20662,

    They have begun shitting on the moon. Soon the moon will turn brown.

    radioactiveradio,

    That’d be something to see tbh.

    yagav50850,

    Fuck off racist piece of shit

    fafok20662, (edited )

    streetshitting currynigger calling me shit

    Good morning sir. Poo in loo.

    M500,

    Also consider the number of people in India. There is a massive Linux user base there.

    fafok20662,

    Imagine the smell

    radioactiveradio,

    I don’t have to, you stink from just this comment.

    Based india

    FriendBesto,

    That is impressive since the world share for Linux is something below 4%. So the uptake is over double of that of the rest of the world.

    Makes sense, when I check new distro/apps videos on YT, something like 70% of them are made by Indian people.

    SaltyIceteaMaker,

    Year of the linux desktop confirmed?!😱
