Windows desktop market share vs Apple has been dropping, and Linux is slowly creeping up as well.

- zepolen 3y agoThat link doesn't work for me, asks for a subscription. Besides, the trend is what matters.
- pjmlp 3y agoTread is meaningless when it spawns multiple generations, and there are markets where it is irrelevant. Below a certain threshold no one is buying Apple, as they can't afford to, and after 20 years GNU/Linux managed 2%, maybe will reach 5% in the next 20 years at current velocity. Android, ChromeOS and WebOS don't count, as it is irrelevant for users and respective app developers, that they are powered by the Linux kernel.
- yjftsjthsd-h 3y agoOkay, the trend is that it's taken ~30 years for MS to not be >>90% of the market. A person could even argue that them finally losing ground correlates with them not taking stability and continuity as seriously.
