This is the best summary I could come up with:


First hitting over 4% in February, their March data is now in showing not just staying above 4% but rising a little once again showing the trend is clear that Linux use is rising.

A number that is getting steadily harder for developers of all kinds to ignore.

It terms of overall percentage, it's still relatively small but when you think about how many people that actually is, it's a lot.

For those thinking it may be due to Steam Deck with SteamOS, it's unlikely, at least not directly.

StatCounter gather their info from web traffic across over 1.5 million sites globally.

There's going to be various other bigger factors at play here though, like Linux nowadays actually being properly good on the desktop.
