We see the nearly 33-year-old OS’s market share growing 31.3 percent from June 2023, when we last reported on Linux market share, to February. Since June, Linux usage has mostly increased gradually. Overall, there’s been a big leap in usage compared to five years ago. In February 2019, Linux was reportedly on 1.58 percent of desktops globally.
The increase in Linux is actually from Apple. Both Linux and Windows usage increased while MacOS decreased.
To be horribly pedantic… Not necessarily!
It could be Apple users -> Windows users -> Linux users – with larger numbers of Apple -> Windows conversions than Windows -> Linux conversions…
You know.
Maybe.
