I always thought Red Star OS would be mandated
Data is Beautiful
Be respectful
Most of the popular countries I see mostly tried to promote linux/open source in the past.
Mainland Australia simply does not exist. It has been removed from the planet.
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?
c/mapsWITHnz
Shoutout to Tasmania though....
This map from 2040.
The emus went nuclear.
There never was a peace treaty or anything like that to the the emu war. The emus could still be waiting for Australia's unconditional surrender to this day.
If Japan's 0 and it's still visible, what's going on with Australia?
Japan being 0 is actually shocking lol
Extremely rare map without Australia but with New Zealand.
New Zealand: How does it feel now!
TBH kinda relaxing
That's not a real country
Ironically, if we had data for Antarctica, I wonder if it'd be damn-near 100% with all the researchers there.
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.
And anyone in academia who uses a data set knows python. Sometimes a lot of python.
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.
Rare moment of being proud to be a modern Greek!
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.
Data sauce?
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.
Having set up japanese input method on both ubuntu and arch not to long ago: It's a bit janky. Defenetly not just "hit install".
Mosc isn’t bad. I even set the keyboard shortcuts to their Windows IME equivalents cause it’s easy to remember.
it's not, the setup is just a little bit jank on kde wayland (and it's already better then on kde X11)
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.
Minix definitely isn't linux.
Is this just desktops?
Yes, this is based on desktop use.
Prolly desktops on the internet which don't block too many trackers
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.
How is it possible that Japan has 0 Linux users?
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.
It just has to be below 0.01%.
Ukraine, whaaat?? Have the constant cyber attacks pushed them towards more secure options?
Somehow it's not India, past the north eastern neck.
Hey, why isn’t China more green? I’d think the CCP hates western spyware OSes.
