Desktop Operating System Market Share Worldwide | Statcounter Global Stats

This graph shows the market share of desktop operating systems worldwide based on over 5 billion monthly page views.

It peaked at 4.05% in March. The last 2 months it went just below 4% as the Unknown category increased. For June the reverse happened, so 4.04% seems to be the real current share of Linux on Desktop as desktop clients were read properly/werent spoofed.

      Nexus mods is working on a Linux client which is really exciting! Also Steam Workshop works on Linux. This covers a ton of use cases.

      Not saying everything is 100% perfection, but it’s easier than ever to switch, and only getting easier.

      I imagine “Windows locked mods” would probably also benefit from just disconnecting the internet and keeping it set up just the way one likes it, since MS is gonna drop Win10 soon.

      That’s the case with WMR VR headsets. Sadly don’t see those getting cracked to work on Linux any time soon. :(

        I just saw the news for Nexus mods like 20 minutes after I posted that. Hopefully it can be integrated well soon.

        But yes, over time, things will continue to get better. Even Nvidia finally started working on open drivers for their GPUs.
