This, it's extremely popular in enterprise to the point where debian just isn't an option.
Something like wind river should be deep in the red square.

Servers arenโ€™t directly touched by users. Nobody knows or even cares what the server is outside of the admin.

Guess I went with the wrong assumption about the scope of this chart

After recent developments and threats of COC violations, Arch should probably be moved up to center of red.

Shouldn't Ubuntu be more "mainstream" than debian?

You underestimate the meaning for the admin though

In that case Debian, Ubuntu, and Windows server should absolutely dwarf OSX...

That said, I personally wouldn't consider "server use" to be "mainstream"... To me install-base does not equate to "mainstream".

Thatโ€™s the Windows 7 logo. Windows 10 and 11 are in the upper right corner.

even in just the desktop space, macos only holds any significant share on western europe, usa, canada and australia

Arch is one of the distros that has unfortunately bent the knee to age verification, and is banning users from contributing if they oppose the change under guise of Code of Conduct violations (COC)

Why are there multiple windows logos? You don't see Fedora 42 and 43 on the plots nor the different versions of any other distro.
