Gemini version available ♊︎As Microsoft Windows Drops to Just 30% Market Share the Microsoft-Connected ‘Net Applications’ Wants You to Think Windows Still Has Over 90% of the Market
Summary: StatCounter says Windows is down to 30% this month (Android is at over 42%) and it’s time to talk about the lies which are still being spread by Net Applications (many so-called ‘news’ sites helped spread those lies last year, including so-called ‘Linux’ sites)
THE shareholders of Microsoft may still choose to self-delude and live in a world where everything is Windows and where Azure doesn’t have layoffs (it does actually, but Microsoft defrauds its shareholders and isn’t telling them what’s really going on).
I’ve been writing about the market share of “Linux” (however one defines that) for many years, even in the “official” media. The impact and the importance of GNU/Linux is far bigger than corporate media is willing to publicly acknowledge; like the Linux Foundation, people who run this media don’t have basic understanding of GNU/Linux and they’re instead pursuing money (and let’s face it, there’s more money in misleading and lying than in spreading actual facts).
The above video, which relates to this one, was made in response to the latest figures from StatCounter; they show the ongoing downward trend of Windows. It is a plunge. No wonder Microsoft keeps trying to advertise a ‘free’ Vista 10 (this became increasingly frantic a campaign in recent weeks/months). Microsoft is spying on all Windows users to keep count; it knows far too well what’s going on. It’s bleeding. █
