From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I have nothing constructive to say. I laughed too much at this.
Not what the distro meant by release

Do you guys realize how much 40% actually is in a single year? That's crazy. Don't just look at the 5.1%.
I'm sure it's heavily influenced by the Steam Deck, it being a great device for porn and all, but still.
It does correlate with the numbers Steam released a few days or weeks ago.
Windows 11 not installing on "older" machines is big too.
We really need to thank Microsoft. They're pushing a LOT of people to try out the free stuff.
Linux users are gooners confirmed.
My apologies, this data is misleading. Most of the new traffic is actually just me mass downloading and data hoarding porn across thousands of VMs. Whenever I need to rub one out I ssh into one of them and watch it that way. Keeps it off my main machine and keeps my browser history clean.
Rube Goldberg machine but for masturbation.

I'm sorry. There are people who go to an adult hardcore porn site and then type in "Suitable for work"??? Like do you think the site wouldn't get flagged at your work?

Ok I have problems with these cutoffs for ages. My wife is 57 (1967) and is very definitely a gen x’er.

I am very suspicious of the -26% Apple marketshare. It makes me feel like there's more to this than it seems at first. There's no way 26% of Apple users stopped using Apple devices within a year.
Edit: maybe it could be caused by a large user base increase that shifted the demographics, but this fast? And the PornHub bans across US states started only this year for the most part if I'm not mistaken, so it shouldn't affect this data?
2024 was the release of iOS 17.4, when Apple allowed third party browsers to use their own engine instead of WebKit/Safari as a layer beneath. So it could very well be that Firefox Mobile and Chrome Mobile on iOS don’t get registered as iOS Device in this survey due to their user agent.
No browser uses a different engine yet (presumably because Apple only allows them to offer this in the EU, under draconian conditions).

They said in the report that they have grown marketshare in Asia and Africa, as less people use apple in those regions the percentage dropped.
That's all me ur welcome gais
Windows grew?
More wankers every year.
If they're anything like me, it's the old laptop that you'd install Linux on as an experiment.
And maybe that laptop was only ah... Semi-retired at the time.
Just fapped as a celebration 🎉
Is anyone working at a FOSS and federated alternative to pornhub?
The problem with the federated model for porn is that it's easier to get away with hosting illegal content.
Using something like PeerTube is potentially even worse because let's say you unknowingly open a video where someone in it looks of age but technically isn't. You as a user help propagate that content while you have it open. You're not just downloading illegal content at that point. You're actively sharing it to new people.
