I am a Linux advocate and user, but this looks closer to flag than upvote. The results are simply out of whack with any number of real world data sources, from distributions own statistics to google trends.
- CrankyBear 14y agoWell, as the story points out, there's no great data, but DistroWatch's numbers are as close as we've got to a constant check on what distros are getting attention and which ones aren't.
- Zenst 14y agoI almost lost a my job over distrowatch once, was distro called lesbos (debian based) - was harmless mistake that turned into a sitiuation comedy involving a offline printer and a lady being first in the office to turn on the printer the next day. We all laughed in the end. But it is a good source of seeing what is out there and bringing new distributions to attention in a central place and if you want a niche distribution of any flavour then it is a great place to start out. But unlike women or men you can play with more than one at once and still go back to your favourite with no love lost, so by all means play around with other flavours, VM's great for that as well at many levels.
