Linux marketshare is now big enough to fit tux inside the chart! We did it!
It’s the year of the Linux desktop
It’s funny to think there are already teenagers born in a year of the Linux desktop
It’s better to stay away from windows if you’re having a wank.
Brilliant
That’d make a great switch to Linux billboard.
You don’t want an agentic AI to coach you through the process or relevant ads after?
Now that Linux is mainstream where do we move to feel elitist? DragonFly BSD? Redox OS?
TempleOS
SerenityOS is “a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core”.
It’s good enough to be proud of, while alienating normal people, not incidentally, like linux used to, but on purpose, like this sentence does, making it a great for elitists.Perfect. Installing now.
Next year will be SerenityOS desktop year!
I thought it was not recommended to run on bare metal? There are some other obscure OSes that can run fine on bare metal (although Serenity is not really obscure in the foss space, only in the mainstream)
Hmm I cannot find some community discussions about this on distrowatch but this looks surely awesome! I always wanted to go back to my childhoods computing interface – oh god I need that
But what type of kernel is this the new talk about “custom unix-like core”? So this is not linux, it is also not unix? Seems like it would bring me back the same fun of exploring some unknown os, like when I was 7 years old.
One could alternatively run GNU hurd, then you also get Debian but also cachè
The real elites shall forever be the Plan9 group. There’s dozens of users! Dozens!
We just start the distro wars.
I’m on Debian. Is that niche enough?
Nope too mainstream. Try Kali Linux at least.
Did they not rebrand to ParrotOS or smth?
Again? It used to be called something else even further back.
It must be part of the “security through making it hard to search for online” strategy.
Kali and Parrot were two separate distros last time I used Parrot.
The Distro Wars have already been raging for decades now.
I preordered a Jolla. Chasing that “0.6 % Other” high.
HaikuOS
Create ExLisperOS and you’re good to go.
Lots of wankers using Linux, eh?
People probably don’t want to watch it with their Microsoft employee.
Frustrating that you can’t even get to the pornhub press pages and look at the year in review without hopping on VPN if you’re in a restricted area. I feel like Cherie Deville with her PSA on the block page might technically be the most viewed model on there now.
I feel your pain.

ChromeOS always disturbs me. Is there a 2.4% out there casually watching porn on side with their chromebooks during highschool geometry?
And why they switching to linux?
chromebooks during highschool geometry
Nah, most of the school equipment/networks are monitored/blocked to hell and back. I’m not saying they can’t find loopholes, but they’re severely hampered, and when they get caught, it’s a big deal.
A lot of that chromeOS is people buying the cheapest hardware at Walmart and using it as their faptop.
Just like a lot of the Linux is probably steamdecks.
AI agents and web scrapers surely
I would expect AI scrapers to fake a windows user-agent tbh.
Why? Isn’t it likely that it’ll just report e.g. “python-requests” for the user agent, and it’s up to the server side to decide what that means?
That user agent would make them easily identifiable and therefore blockable. It’s more likely that they are trying to hide as a legitimate user.
That will be labeled as “other” in those cases
Just hard to believe 6%. That’s a huge number. Hopefully it’s true🤞
Chrome OS is down, they probably got reinstalled with regular Linux. The rest represents about 1% of the total market share, which could probably be Steam Decks.
Would love to see what kind of porn Linux users watch compared to others.
“Femboy” or furry, obviously.
I use Arch btw.
Polyamorous in public. It’s open and anyone can contribute.
Brilliant
Anime? Manga? Tentacle?
Whatever type it’s probably esoteric and somehow involves the command line.
what else is there ? porn with a GUI ??
Well, a terminal can be pure porn.
Rule 34
Whatever kink, but with consent not sudo.
sudo is asking for permission. It’s su that is straight up pillaging.
Why did no one tell me about the terminal tentacles?
Personally, nothing on PornHub.
I’d guess there’s less traffic to “landlubber” sites from Linux users.
PornHub is a treasure trove for… data science
Year of the Linux gooning
I’m doing my part!
Heh, my “part”
angry upvote 😡
Linux usafe has surely grown, but I think a laege percentage of that are AI crawlers and shit like that.
Hey. It’s been a lonely year. Don’t shame me, bro.
But nobody did…
I watch porn sometimes. Period. No need too add guilt, shame or anything negative too that. It is somethin people do and is part of how people live their sexuality and that’s that.
I want SteamOS to turn into a general purpose OS so I can shitcan Windows for good!
There are already quite a few immutable distros you could use today like Bazzite or Fedora Atomic. The main advantage of SteamOS is that it’s tailor made for specific hardware, an advantage it would automatically lose as a general purpose OS.
Isn’t it already in desktop mode? I swapped to linux and mostly use flatpaks on my main pc and havent looked back after a year.
I forgot I was using docked bazzite handheld as a pc for setup yesterday and started using it for my normal browsing. No differnce using zen there or on my pc, except the amount of tabs before I lag, way less resources but I didnt really experience issues (legion go s z2 go)
