No, it could be 1 in 20 computers. It could be more than 1 in 20 computers. It could be less than 1 in 20 computers. 5% of the page views, of sites that Statcounter tracks, are reported as Linux machines.
There is no way to know what percentage of machines are Linux from the Statcounter reporting as it is.
I think it is acceptably incorrect. Linux machines are everywhere, in a lot more things than what most are aware of. If you counted all “machines” in the virtual sense, that runs one of MacOS, Windows or Linux, I’d be surprised if there is more than 1% for MacOS and Windows combined.
Good question. How about you share what it is you don’t understand? “Market share” depends on some understanding. If it was “Linux machines”, there are more than 100 for every 1 of windows or macs. But fewer than one out of these 100 has a monitor, mouse and keyboard connected to them.
Ps: feel free to fuck off, if you’re going to be rude and ignorant.
No, Statcounter measures usage; not machines.
So the headline is a lie and it’s not 5% of market share?

I look at your response, then again at the headline… How is it possible for someone to be able to write, but not read?

Desktop Market Share. It’s right there. I can’t physically make you look more than that.
FFS, this is quoting you:

Go fuck off.
I can’t help you if you can’t read.
