So, does this include ChromeOS? I'm not sure if I'd qualify it as either a desktop OS or "Linux" (in the traditional sense). But since there's enough room for debate there it's worth asking.
The article specifically notes this. They exclude chromeOS. If you include ChromeOS, it’s closer to 6.5%
Well, I missed an entire paragraph, indeed it is. I read about SteamOS the first time, though.🤷
I’ve done that same thing so many times
They don't even count Android as Linux (despite any Android respond to
uname -awith Linux version and all).. otherwise Linux would count as this planet's OS.Also true, but Android is also rarely if ever considered "desktop". ChromeOS could be, since it shares a market with Mac and Windows laptops, which also run "desktop" operating systems.
