If Japan’s 0 and it’s still visible, what’s going on with Australia?
Extremely rare map without Australia but with New Zealand.
New Zealand: How does it feel now!
TBH kinda relaxing
It’s like the worst map possible, it has NZ and Tasmania, but doesn’t have the Australian mainland.
That’s not a real country
if we assume it’s the opposite of India at 15% (black) , it must be negative 15%.
Ironically, if we had data for Antarctica, I wonder if it’d be damn-near 100% with all the researchers there.
You gotta use Linux in penguin lands or they will peck you.
Researchers probably run windows or Mac, but I’d guess the admins who maintain their infrastructure probably run Linux for themselves and on the infrastructure. And probably various tools that control things like core samplers and shit.
I use Linux. I’m a researcher, not IT. Many of my colleagues use Linux.
BOOM! In your FACE! Where’s your god now, huh?
We have stats for computers on the internet via gs statcounter, it’s all mac to use web
Meh, I’ve worked in IT infrastructure for science labs and research facilities- researchers are amazingly competent in their fields, and almost nothing else. I doubt many of them run Linux.
Tasmania representing all of Australia today
Fuck.
Normally I’d link MapsWithoutTasmania but this threw me for a loop.
Are they your Florida?
Worse, Alabama.
Shouldn’t Australia still be there? I thought that patch didn’t drop until 2025
This map from 2040.
The emus went nuclear.
There never was a peace treaty or anything like that to the the emu war. The emus could still be waiting for Australia’s unconditional surrender to this day.
There’s New Zealand but no Australia, what’s the world coming to?
Shoutout to Tasmania though…
Is this just desktops?
Informally, walking through anybody’s house, I can find dozens of linux devices. They’re just white label. Your digital thermostat? Linux. Washing machine? Linux. Wi-Fi access point? Linux. ISP issued CPE? Linux. Switch? Linux
Audio mixing board? Linux …
Intel management engine… minux, so basically Linux.
Is this just desktops?
Yes, this is based on desktop use.
Minix definitely isn’t linux.
Prolly desktops on the internet which don’t block too many trackers
A lot of those are running either minix, BSD, or some other ultralightweight OS. and those are definitely not Linux. Not even close.
Somehow it’s not India, past the north eastern neck.
Data sauce?
Ukraine, whaaat?? Have the constant cyber attacks pushed them towards more secure options?
It makes me pleased that Ukraine is becoming more technologically advanced!
Hey, why isn’t China more green? I’d think the CCP hates western spyware OSes.
I would guess that too but apparently Windows is at ~85%.
They have their own versions with local spyware:
If we’re into conspiracy land, Linux is totally a western OS.
Why is China and Japan so low? Is that just bad reporting? Is it a language / character support issue?
I’d think China would want their own government run distro they can control.
China could potentially be explained by them not giving a fuck about software piracy – at least in the 90s and early 2000s – so money was never a motivation to move to Linux.
Windows costs about as much as a meal and the key lasts decades. Money was never the motivation.
Antartica just sitting this one out.
Australia wasn’t even invited
Rare moment of being proud to be a modern Greek!
Mainland Australia simply does not exist. It has been removed from the planet.
It makes sense. That’s where the Indian YouTube explainer guys live.
Also, shame for us, although it matches the general run-by-old-people oligopoly vibe we have going in Canada.
How is it possible that Japan has 0 Linux users?
It’s literally not possible if humans live there lol. I hear humans live there.
It just has to be below 0.01%.
I know a couple of Japanese people running Linux on their desktops. So, I say the counting method is borked somewhere.
