Windows, the most used OS in the world is listed under "Other" when looking at the Platforms pie chart. Pretty funny that in the HN community Linux is more commonly used than Windows, at least from the people that clicked on the link.

- ihucos 6y agoYes, also before the HN peak it seemed that windows was not so common actually. Which kind of makes sense given the product.
