Summary: The growth of GNU/Linux is undeniable (even if the corporate media rarely speaks about it, not as much as it speaks about WSL, which is a total failure); below is a story from a few hours ago
"Pardus is a GNU/Linux distribution jointly developed by the Scientific & Technological Research Council of Turkey (T́B̡TAK) and National Academic Network and Information Centre (ULAKB̡M). It started its life as a Gentoo-based project before developing its own unique identity. Since late 2012, the distribution is based on Debian." --
