    I was checking out regional market shares and it seems Linux has a 29.1% market share in Norway. Anybody knows why? Linux is almost twice as big as OSX there.

      So in theory, one third of everyone I meet should be a linux user. Yet everyone uses windows. 🤔 Am I the 30%?? /sw

        Right? It seems fishy to me, that’s why I asked. Would love to know the reason for this.

          I do actually know a fair share of people using Linux in my social circle, but a lot of them uses both windows and Linux. My family uses Linux for their private devices, as that was a requirement to get my technical support. And an increasing number of my friends are moving over to Linux.

          What I find weird is the sudden increase of 10% (from 18.16% to 29.04%). Like, did everyone get back from vacation after a Linux conversion camp or something?

            Good on you for converting even more normies to Linux.

            What I find weird is the sudden increase of 10% (from 18.16% to 29.04%).

            There have to be a reason for this. Maybe people finally got fed up with MS & Apple.
