GNU/Linux at New Highs in Bosnia And Herzegovina

posted by Roy Schestowitz on Dec 16, 2024

This past summer we said that "GNU/Linux [Was] Growing Towards 6% "Market Share" in Bosnia And Herzegovina" and "GNU/Linux Grew Tenfold in Bosnia And Herzegovina" (based on this data, which this month places GNU/Linux at 5.4% - an all-time high). That's not even counting Chromebooks with ChromeOS.

Quite a few Balkan nations show high adoption rates for GNU/Linux. Android is also a lot bigger than Windows. █
