1 out of the 3 total norwegian changed the OS after creating a lemmy account.
We’re quite stupid and easy to influence.
Proof in point: I’ve gone from 0 to 3 Linux machines since joining Lemmy.
Someone send help, please??
Buy Raspberry Pis in bulk and make pointless SBC projects. It’s the only thing that will fulfill you.
Same here. Maybe that explains it, all linux users just run multiple systems. I dont know many people who use linux certainly not every third person I meet.

I really want to and at the same time don’t want to know where your name comes from…
I’m thinking koffert straight away
You laugh but I installed my first Linux distro after leaving reddit and coming here lol.
I especially appreciate that the graph is designed as “Linux” and “Other” instead of “Windows”, maybe “MacOS” and “Other”.
Norwegian here. I quit reddit and joined Lemmy after the API debacle. Installed mint because of W11. (A big factor was how Steam and proton enables me to play games)
Can’t say either Lemmy or Linux has gotten any media attention in the big news sources as far as I can see.
I am the only one in my circle of friends that quit Reddit (most follow the various 40k reddits, and they have no replacement in federated options)
Also Norwegian. I installed Debian linux inspired by my brother who uses a version of Gentoo before systemd, and trying to hack an annoying neighbour’s bluetooth speaker. I quickly became invested in Linux. However, as far as I know, I might be the only one among my friends to make the switch. I joined Lemmy after discovering Voyager on F-Droid on my rooted, degoogled android phone
Never changed the ROM of my abdroid phones but, as far as I understand, it should possible to install Lineage and lock the boot loader and stop using root, no?
They just started counting all my computers and virtual machines on which I run Arch and Nixos btw!
As a Dane i can say that maybe its because Scandinavians are generally pretty tech savvy and good with digitalisation. Also Scandinavians has a low tolerance for bullshit.
This sounds valid. I wonder how many Scandinavians switched to Linux because of Windows 11.
Yup. It’s the reason why Denmark is the most developed country in North America as Canada and the United States worship the aristocrats’ bullshit too much.
Denmark shares a land border with Canada on Hans Island also France shares a maritime border with Canada.
