Clearly you have never worked in an enterprise if that is where you stick red hat.
This, it’s extremely popular in enterprise to the point where debian just isn’t an option. Something like wind river should be deep in the red square.
Shouldn’t Ubuntu be more “mainstream” than debian?
…and less “mainstream” than Windows?
That’s the Windows 7 logo. Windows 10 and 11 are in the upper right corner.
Why are there multiple windows logos? You don’t see Fedora 42 and 43 on the plots nor the different versions of any other distro.
Not if you’re including servers.
In that case Debian, Ubuntu, and Windows server should absolutely dwarf OSX…
That said, I personally wouldn’t consider “server use” to be “mainstream”… To me install-base does not equate to “mainstream”.
even in just the desktop space, macos only holds any significant share on western europe, usa, canada and australia
My take

(I wanted to make a post but you beat me to it and i don’t want to flood the community with this type of posts)
I think your compass is a little bit borked. 🫠
debian wins again, slow and steady wins the race
How is it more mainstream than mac?
Are you doubting OP’s data sources?
What is as free and as mainstream as Mac?
anything really, macos is pure garbage
Where’s Windows 95?
Red Star OS
corporateI don’t think corporations even exist in North Korea.
I see that templeOS just off screen. Nice.
More accurate than that shitty one from this morning
How is Arch more niche than openSUSE??
After recent developments and threats of COC violations, Arch should probably be moved up to center of red.
what? (seriously idk what’s going on)
Arch is one of the distros that has unfortunately bent the knee to age verification, and is banning users from contributing if they oppose the change under guise of Code of Conduct violations (COC)
oh no i use arch
and i just updated, but it hasn’t asked me for anything yet
