It looks like its lumping Android in with desktop linux. Since they are differentiating platforms by the user agent that seems like an easy thing to fix?

- zelly 7y agoDesktop Linux is a rounding error
- jsnell 7y agoThe OS table has entry for X11 with maybe 2-3% shaer; I'd bet that's desktop Linux.
- Symbiote 7y agoThat's an impressive figure. Macintosh (desktop Mac?) is slightly less than double the X11 figure. https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share has Linux usage at just under 1%.
- half-kh-hacker 7y agoI would hazard a guess that more Linux users are blocking the ad networks that StatCounter utilizes to collect their data than Linux users that block requests to fonts.google.com.
- londons_explore 7y agoLots of "browse the web from this phone box" and "the departures board in the train station that shows a webpage" will be Linux. I bet many of them use Google Fonts, and with them auto-refreshing every 5 seconds all day long, they might get seriously overcounted.
- jsnell 7y agoI doubt that the fonts get reloaded when the page is refreshed. According to other posts in this thread, the cache TTL is 24 hours.
- londons_explore 7y agoMost of these boards use kill -9 to restart the browser every half hour or so, and likely nuke the cache each time.
