It's somewhat political because Microsoft's offerings are a surveillance mechanismhttps://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/desktop/north-america#monthly-202506-202607Linux has crossed a major milestone in North America, with the open-source operating system now accounting for 10.65% of desktop usage in the region, according to Statcounter's latest figures for July 2026. The result places Linux firmly in double-digit territory for the first time in Statcounter's North American desktop operating system statistics.For comparison, Statcounter recorded Linux at 5.52% in June 2026, so the share nearly doubled in one month... However, the sharp monthly increase needs context. Statcounter's June figures included an "Unknown" category that accounted for 9.24% of North American desktop usage. Its reduction seems to have coincided with Linux's rise, possibly indicating better identification of previously unclassified traffic...Statcounter is not the only major web measurement platform showing Linux with a substantial presence on North American desktops. Cloudflare Radar data, filtered to desktop HTTP traffic from North America over the previous 28 days, also places Linux at a notably high level [9.4%].Linuces:India: 14.73%(they love Microsoft but Linux is free..)United States: 11.87%Germany: 7.24%UK: 6.18%Canada: 3.83%Australia: 3.55%Finland: 2%(we invented Linux but wont use it)
wrong board, you fucking idiot
>>540069629windows is annoying to install now cause you have to strip the iso or debloat it after and the payoff is that you're using windows which isn't a very good one
>>540069964yes, it sucks, its a good thing though Windows 10 wont change anymore so it can be installed normally as it is, without modifying an ISO
>>540069629>Finland: 2%
>>540069629bump.all government services should switch to linux and stop wasting money on windows licences.
>>540069629>Finland: 2%>(we invented Linux but wont use it)The reason the US and India have such high percentages is because most the populations are incredibly poor and can only afford very dated PCs running an XFCE distro. Most people aren't using it by choice
>>540070408Or just quit paying the US what lil Danny gonna do that's my OS now.
Linux is the most used general operating system in the world. It's in every server, router, TV and Android phone. Those numbers aren't accurate at all. People have been using Linux for many years without even knowing it.
>>540071455>router, TV and Android phone. Those numbers aren't accurate at allDid you even open the op link? It's survey of specifically personal computers
>>540069629I regularly have sex, so what's wrong with systemd. Isn't it just a boot order of activating services during bootime... or something similar. Like we can use systemctl command instead of .init or other to start and stop services, is it Spyware?
I ditched windows in May. Cachy on desktop and laptop now. Local AI doing all the bullshit Linux stuff for me. Never going back to windows unless they start paying me monthly to use it.
>>540072394I ditched windows in 2002.
>>540072014Raping animals isn't sex, dikshit
>>540072549Congratulations
>>540071089Everything is cloud
>>540069629Serious question from a clown, why are there no phones yet with a Linux-based OS
I don't care if the government knows I jerk off to furry futas then come on here to call people slurs and if lucky, a good debate. I have a good career making decent money, a gf, and a good family. So I'll continue using windows cause I just frankly don't care.
>>540073648>Government makes a law banning saying no no words >Anon faggotson's digital profile: 600k niggerwords>Job lost, gf leaves you and can't support familyWOW
>>540073498There are billions retard. Android is based on Linux.
>>540073648Main reason people switch is you now have to basically shell out gaming PC money just to have a windows 11 desktop they doesn't run abysmally
>>540073782>Hey how do we stop extremism from taking over?>Oh I know, destroy everything that keeps them as a functional member of society for saying things on a Tibetan patch sewing forum!>Wow great idea, that totally wouldn't backfire by leaving with nothing to loseNigger why do you think the mafia in the US vanished? Because back in the day they didn't have anything so they organized to rob and steal for it. As time went on, they started having things and life got comfy, so there wasnt any point in it anymore. Simple as>>540074049Ehh I don't really notice but I get why if you're more autistic about it. I just play vidya, goon to furry futas, and call people slurs or have really good debates.
>>540074709>leaving them*

IMAGINE subjugating yourself to Microsoft corporation and still choosing to be a cuckold when you could literally just install Linux and not be a cuckold anymore. IMAGINE being scared of reverse engineering and creating solutions to problems by any means you see fit. I REFUSE to do so, it's just that simple.
>>540069629It's not going to be switched over to en masse. Businesses will switch to Mac before Linux as Mac has support statff. Linux does not.
>>540074709You really think what they're doing is about stopping extremism? That is just the Trojan horse that's being used to bring in a complete police state. They will keep pushing people and they will keep expanding surveillance, eventually the people will rise up, they know it, they're planning for it and when that day comes they will strike down hard using all the tools they've developed.So yeah, maybe we can get away with this pseudo-anonymous shitposting for a while, but every part of the internet has been slowly strangled for anonymity, even this place is compromised. What I'm saying is that this isn't about some fed knowing what I jerk off to, who gives a shit, it's how everything we do will soon be weaponized against us if they even suspect we might think about resisting. To these (((people))) can always be replaced with some random nigger or jeet, never forget that.
>>540070204yeah but the software you want to run now forces you to upgrade to windows 11
>>540075076That's why you need to radically normalize everything.
>>540075076Oh I agree, and I get theres more at play here. But its also something thats been predicted for a long time and never really manifests. But why? Well its simple, the old guard of the ruling elite and kikes wanted their one world government because they saw it as the best way to maintain a status quo of them in power and avoid muh holobunga, with the added bonus of getting rid of Whites via mixing etc etc. But the newer Gen of theirs realized itd essentially be an empire and those dont always work out even with technology. Every empire has its frontiers, its beyond-the-pale zones, etc. Where laws fanatically enforced in major cities and countries closer to the core are much more relaxed on the edges and beyond. And even within thered be pockets they can never snuff out, not really. Enforcing it alone would be a nightmare even with all that tech. So rather than fulfill their desires of a World Government with a billion man army, etc they've shifted to neo-feudalism. Think the video game Ruiner or Judge Dredd. Megacities and Citystates functioning on their own, maybe working together but otherwise on their own because its easier to rule over feudal societies than one giant world empire. Which means that entire regions of the world that arent turd world hellholes will be free of their power due to being on the peripheral or just not of interest. And my career allows me to go live in those places more or less unbothered. Which is what they care about ultimately, better to ignore us being contributing members of society and not bothering anyone than forcefully ruining our lives for mean words online. >inb4 ur gonna run awayAt this point in my life I'm sympathizing with Martin from Jungers Eumiswill at least in terms of practicality not ideology. If any group is competent enough to hoist the black flag and change things then ill throw my hat in the ring. Till then its back to my regularly scheduled programs of furry futa hentai and playing Isonzo after work.
