So after a lot of people switching to Linux last year you are trying to tell me Linux usage increased by 0.2% while the usage of the mysterious "unknown" operating system increased by 8%? Who still believes these bullshit numbers?
statcounter is very unreliable for desktop usage tracking because no major website or ad network actually uses it and more than half of desktop users use adblockers anyway. Also Unknown seems to be more likely to be Windows than Linux or anything exotic, as you can see with the fucky bump from 2023 https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/desktop/worldwide/2023
Statcounter is famously incompetent.A rough but accurate number for desktop OS share for Linux is the average between Steam's monthly hardware survey (3.2% in November 2025) and PornHub's annual web traffic report (6.3% in 2025)

>>107733421>while the usage of the mysterious "unknown" operating system increased by 8%?the year of the solaris desktop is upon us.
>>107734009Google it, my good saar.
>>107733421It could be that crawlers and scrapers are counted as "unknown" and since AI companies are scraping the entire internet 24/7, it saw a surge. Hell I have a small website with like 100~ users and OpenAI scraped my shit 97 million times to date.
>>107734050so you made it yourself, thanks for concession
>>107734009The source is actually statcounter's Indian desktop pageA redditor made it 2 years ago5 years ago Linux's jeet marketshare stood at 5%, then it grew to 15% and that's what this mong is spamming and now it's down to 5% againIt's a testament to what shit source that site is with random fluctuations like thatAnd majority of their data being unknown so they're failing at their jobs
>>107734170how the fuck is it unknown? are they all using modified browsers that don't tell the website what os they're using? this doesn't make sense
>>107734250They are probably just too dumb to recognize thousands of different linux distros so they just gave up at one point
>>107734298linux is literally right fucking therethe reality is that this is just fucking phone browser agent spoofingjeets don't use computers, jeets amount to half as much steam traffic as fucking ukrainians despite them being 37x as numeroushttps://store.steampowered.com/stats/content/
