Where do you get these figures from? Is there a sensible % increase?
I've been using Linux desktop for a decade now and I am certain it still used by few, and nothing has changed recently. Or you're telling me 2026 is the year of the Linux desktop?
- typpilol 1y ago2025 is surly the year of Linux desktop this time!
- fao_ 1y agoProbably not 2026, but sure, by 2030. A fair chunk of the younger generation do give a shit about privacy (see also: torrenting on the rise again), Linux is mostly unattended with respect to configuring things these days, and things like "sound" and "games" are for the most part a thing of the past outside of 4 or 5 specific games that require kernel-level anticheat.
- rolph 1y agoyes torrenting is on the rise, and a lot more people seem to be aware of private torrents.
- potwinkle 1y agoThe year of the Linux Desktop was like 3 years ago with Proton becoming good and the kernel getting a ton of improvements.
