I was looking through my server logs, and I noticed that Linux was represented far more than Mac os. That surprised me since I thought Mac still had a larger market share. I googled it and found that it does.
But not on my site.
So it got me thinking. The market share estimates are probably based on all existing computers, and would be slanted by commercial use. If I could find numbers for market share of home systems only, I wonder if it would be different.
Over the last month on my site, the ratio has been 50-5-1 win/linux/mac.
Is it just that users of my site are smarter than average, or is linux starting to pass mac in personal use?
I use Linux, specifically Solus OS right now. I'll probably switch it back to something more widely supported soon like Linux Mint. It's neat, being able to try different distributions for free and each one brings sort of a unique experience. There are a lot out there that are at least as good as Windows in my opinion. Still needs more gaming support but even the gaming community is getting there too.
Solus is cool and I recommend trying it out. It's a nice interface. Everything is very basic and works well.
