 @771c7916 Perhaps your concern about Linux share not being counted correctly will actually work against it, not in its favor? E.g. in my household there are many Apple devices (of both desktop, laptop & mobile variety), where all the same type ones will share the same user-agent and will have the same NATed IP, and this is probably true of many households, so that will reduce the actual Linux desktop share? 1 in 23 using Desktop Linux?! Doesn’t pass the smell test! Way too high, imo. 
 @b9a8d5ef yes goud point you make as well. And these are just desktop stats so does exclude the servers, Raspberry Pis etc running Linux. 
 @771c7916 Also, absolutely: Linux rules the world. Servers, IoT and other embedded devices, "cloud” (i.e. “someone else’s servers”). The list is never ending. No disputing that. But Desktop Linux: hahahahahahahahahahahahaha. (and I say this lovingly, as a 20 year veteran Unix/Linux sysadmin, who doesn't love pain enough to suffer through Desktop Linux at home 😂).
