Linux has nearly half of the desktop OS Linux market

It would be twice as much if people could stop arguing about who counts and who doesn't

Not mine but sounds like a showerthought to me. TL;DR ChromeOS is the “wrong” version of Linux and has 4% while GNU/Linux has 3%

    Interesting read. I was genuinely surprised to read that ChromeOS has 4%+ desktop market share. It’s not popular at all where I am from. I’ve never ever seen one in person.

      I used to sell laptops. Most of my customers were elderly people who only needed to watch Netflix, do their banking, check emails, etc. Chromebooks flew off the shelves.

      It was the College-bound kids who insisted on a proper laptop.
