this article appears to be geared towards linux on a server rather than a desktop
- xena 2y agoAuthor here. Any randomly selected Linux machine is more likely to be a server than it is a desktop.
- 2shortplanks 2y agoAny randomly selected Linux machine is most likely to be a mobile phone, statistically speaking
- bauruine 2y agoAre you sure there are more Android phones than Linux servers?
- mardifoufs 2y agoI don't think there's a way to check for sure but I'd say that's pretty likely. There are billions of android devices, and Linux servers, while popular, are probably less common just because servers are less common than consumer devices in general. But maybe I'm wrong!
- xena 2y agoI'm pretty Android doesn't use CUPS, and most people that use Android don't consider themselves Linux users. I think it's okay.
- nebulous1 2y agoTrue. Linux machines don't read articles though, people do. Whether any randomly selected linux-using reader will have cups installed on a device they control is a very different question.
