Looking online in January they had a 74% share of desktops.
Linux is certainly dominating in the cloud but that doesn't really make much difference here.
74% market share for desktop OS is actually a lot less than I thought. Guess macOS had a solid comeback
From Wikipedia. Not sure when the numbers are from exactly.
Apple has been slowly growing for years. Google took a little with their Chromebooks but they never really took off. Linux continues to grow steadily but is still pretty rare in desktop environments.
Just way for the year of the Linux desktop baby!Any second now, any second
Yeah if you follow the link to the source freebsd is 0.01%
Linux is 3.1 and unknown is 3.7 so in all likelyhood that's mostly Linux that they couldn't identify.

Those have to be old. Last I saw chromeOS had overtaken MacOS a few years ago due to Google’s huge push to give chromebooks to schools during the pandemic for remote learning. https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-56116573

So seem like it has bombed since that article.
Your article suggest it was a boom due to lockdown. Maybe that's faded as kids go back to school.
it's also notable that Microsoft has no realistic mobile OS of their own, and a huge amount of what used to be done on a desktop OS is now on mobile. Operating an ecommerce site for instance, 65% of the traffic is from mobile phones, even browser vs apps.
