We need to grow that 0.5%!

Indeed.
Also great evidence that Windows is not dying, no matter what the Linux fanboys claim.
The thing is Linux doesn't need to topple Windows. Linux just needs a big enough market share for companies to go "maybe we should also offer official support for Linux?"
Oh god, don't say that. You're going to summon them. I'm getting out of here...

Windows' growth is double the absolute percentage of Linux's total even with its growth.
It's essentially the year of "Not Apple."

The steam deck does seem like a good device for "bedtime" browsing.
More seriously, this data is probably less biased toward tech literate users than most similar surveys that get published here. This is really encouraging
Lets get past 7% next year ;)

Proves linux users are sexual deviants
Pornhub is pretty vanilla
not even that, a lot of stuff on there is effectively just reality TV and just makes me die inside when i see the thumbnails
Same with most only fans content I find on twitter. Holy mother of fake enthusiasm...
Remember kids, when you watch porn on Windows, Bill watches with you.
I'm counting on it.

Hypothesis: Pornhub is effected by a lot of the bans in places like Texas. I don't see ChromeOS or Apple users as the kind of folks who know how to find their ways around those bans, but Windows and Linux users are more likely to via VPNs and such.
Possibly a factor, but I don't think a quarter of Apple users are affected by those bans.

Who knew this would be the year Linux on the wankoff.
Let's see porn categories breakdown by os...
Is the huge shift shift from iOS to Android to the fact iPhone users are typically less tech savvy, so places that banned porn hub (like Texas) effectively banned those users, who also weren't savvy enough to use a VPN?

All the iPhone users can afford OnlyFans.
jokes aside it's probably because of US states banning porn sites, and Apple makes up for like 80% of US phones

6.9% when?
Chrome OS
Those are supposed to be for homework...
ChromeOS is for the internet and the internet is for porn. Ergo, vis-a-vis, concordantly...

Vrooom go OSS!
Apple is slipping.
I’d be curious to compare this with total internet usage shares
The internet penetration rate is 67.4% at this time
That's an entire 67.4% higher than my penetration rate percentage.
