Linux market share passes 4% for first time; macOS dominance declines
arstechnica.com
Report: Linux was on 6.34 percent of computers last month if you count ChromeOS.

We see the nearly 33-year-old OS’s market share growing 31.3 percent from June 2023, when we last reported on Linux market share, to February. Since June, Linux usage has mostly increased gradually. Overall, there’s been a big leap in usage compared to five years ago. In February 2019, Linux was reportedly on 1.58 percent of desktops globally.

    Same here. After several false starts over the last 30 years, 2023 was the year of the Linux laptop and server cluster for me. I’ve put in the work now and I am 100% sure that I’m never going back to Windows for those machines. I still have a fancy new Windows gaming machine though. I don’t want to switch it to Linux because it’s an Intel/Nvidia machine with three screens and a bunch of peripherals. Whoops!
