Linux has actually become measurably more popular over the past few years, recently cracking the 3% mark (actually 7% including Chrome OS). I know, doesn't sound like much, but keep in mind even sub-1% browser projects like Brave or Vivaldi are not only alive, but also rather well known and doing great... And Mozilla is co-defining internet standards with Firefox at 9%.
I think we can thank not only Chrome OS (which actually is a Linux desktop distro, no matter how you look at it), the Steam Deck, and finally Microsoft and Win11 for that trend lol
Thanks Raspberry Pi too
