Microsoft assists in the growth of Linux market share

When Microsoft closes a window (Win10), does Linux open a door?

Recent phenomena:

🔥 Zorin OS monthly downloads exceed one million

🔥 Bazzite OS transfers over 1PB

Data doesn't lie: According to StatCounter, Linux desktop share has reached 5% (only 1.5% in 2020). If we include Linux-based ChromeOS and others, it may account for 12% of the overall desktop market.

· Downloads of several popular Linux distributions have surged.

· Global share has tripled in four years, jumping from 1.5% to 5%.

· Considering 'relatives' like ChromeOS, the actual ecosystem share is about 12%.

The controversy over Win11 and the exit of Win10 has indirectly provided a 'divine assist' to Linux. The continuous improvement of the open-source community is the fundamental driving force.

This is not just a migration of users, but the maturation of the ecosystem. What do you think about the future of the Linux desktop?
