Linux market share passes 4% for first time; macOS dominance declines - eviltoast
Report: Linux was on 6.34 percent of computers last month if you count ChromeOS.

I know this might be a couple months old, but I didn’t know we already passed 4%.

    Yeah, I’ve heard really good things about Pop!_OS, especially for Windows migrants.

      Funny enough, if you “need it to look like windows 7” Mint looks pretty close.

      but yes, prior to October my house was 5 windows PCs. A couple weeks ago it was officially 5 Pop machines. No prior Linux experience, except for copy-paste setup of a pihole.

        Or “here’s what Win 10 would look like if Microsoft hadn’t had the tablet-based stroke that was Win 8.” Is how I’d describe Cinnamon.

        The default themes are a little bit dated; I use a darker kind of black transparent theme I got from gnome-look.org with a blue/cyan kind of scheme and it looks pretty up to date.
