Linux sits at <3% users or so.

Not even Microsoft believes that. Where could you possibly find a misrepresentation like that?

~10% is a good guess. AI tools run much better on Ubuntu/Fedora out of the box, and that is not exactly a secret either.

> Where could you possibly find a misrepresentation like that?

On the stats website you linked at any time in the last 20 years with the exception of the two most recent months. To be explicit all of the data points are closer to 3% than 10% except July and August 2026.

I don’t think it’s that surprising that the GP has a misrepresentation of Linux desktop deployments given that the uptick is recent.

AI tools are the killer app driving Desktop Linux. Is anyone else still confused about this? It's been a few minutes since 2023.

Linux has been at 100% for years, don't get confused about mouse and keyboard.
