Mainland Australia simply does not exist. It has been removed from the planet.
Bro moving from hungary where tech literacy is low compared to the rest of europe but when people are tech literate they actually know something to sweden where people are absolute tech bros is so painful. I had quite a few friends in hungary who used linux daily, a majority of them not even that deep into it, while here most people dont even know it exists. Every time i open my laptop someone has to fucking point out that “lol you use linux are you a hacker” which gets fucking annoying after a while.
It makes sense. That’s where the Indian YouTube explainer guys live.
Also, shame for us, although it matches the general run-by-old-people oligopoly vibe we have going in Canada.
Shouldn’t Australia still be there? I thought that patch didn’t drop until 2025
There’s New Zealand but no Australia, what’s the world coming to?
Shoutout to Tasmania though…
This map from 2040.
The emus went nuclear.
Rare moment of being proud to be a modern Greek!
Data sauce?
How is it possible that Japan has 0 Linux users?
It just has to be below 0.01%.
It’s literally not possible if humans live there lol. I hear humans live there.
I know a couple of Japanese people running Linux on their desktops. So, I say the counting method is borked somewhere.
I didn’t expect Linux to be more popular in the Arab World than China or Japan.
How accurate are the numbers?
They seem exaggerated.
Ironically, if we had data for Antarctica, I wonder if it’d be damn-near 100% with all the researchers there.
Meh, I’ve worked in IT infrastructure for science labs and research facilities- researchers are amazingly competent in their fields, and almost nothing else. I doubt many of them run Linux.
You gotta use Linux in penguin lands or they will peck you.
Researchers probably run windows or Mac, but I’d guess the admins who maintain their infrastructure probably run Linux for themselves and on the infrastructure. And probably various tools that control things like core samplers and shit.
I use Linux. I’m a researcher, not IT. Many of my colleagues use Linux.
BOOM! In your FACE! Where’s your god now, huh?
We have stats for computers on the internet via gs statcounter, it’s all mac to use web
Why is China and Japan so low? Is that just bad reporting? Is it a language / character support issue?
I’d think China would want their own government run distro they can control.
China could potentially be explained by them not giving a fuck about software piracy – at least in the 90s and early 2000s – so money was never a motivation to move to Linux.
Windows costs about as much as a meal and the key lasts decades. Money was never the motivation.
If Japan’s 0 and it’s still visible, what’s going on with Australia?
Extremely rare map without Australia but with New Zealand.
New Zealand: How does it feel now!
TBH kinda relaxing
It’s like the worst map possible, it has NZ and Tasmania, but doesn’t have the Australian mainland.
That’s not a real country
if we assume it’s the opposite of India at 15% (black) , it must be negative 15%.
Tasmania representing all of Australia today
Fuck.
Normally I’d link MapsWithoutTasmania but this threw me for a loop.
Are they your Florida?
Worse, Alabama.
Is this just desktops?
Informally, walking through anybody’s house, I can find dozens of linux devices. They’re just white label. Your digital thermostat? Linux. Washing machine? Linux. Wi-Fi access point? Linux. ISP issued CPE? Linux. Switch? Linux
Audio mixing board? Linux …
Intel management engine… minux, so basically Linux.
not to mention…Every 5G iPhone has modem firmware running linux.
and of course every Android phone.
But yes anything else with an IP address that’s not a Windows/Mac/BSD computer… likely Linux.
Prolly desktops on the internet which don’t block too many trackers
Minix definitely isn’t linux.
Is this just desktops?
Yes, this is based on desktop use.
A lot of those are running either minix, BSD, or some other ultralightweight OS. and those are definitely not Linux. Not even close.
Minux has not been updated in 10 years. It should not be used on anything connected to the internet.
Most “ultralight stripped down OS” will be built from linux these days. Usually Tiny Core Linux or Alpine.
Ukraine, whaaat?? Have the constant cyber attacks pushed them towards more secure options?
It makes me pleased that Ukraine is becoming more technologically advanced!
Somehow it’s not India, past the north eastern neck.
