Chrome OS saw a good raise too. OS X(Mac) saw a decrease.

I kind of don’t want Linux to become mainstream tbh because then corporate enshittification becomes a much more real threat.

These corporate interests are the reason it works so good. If you read into the Linux mailing list, major lifting is done by these companies.

Intel, AMD, Suse, Red Hat to name a few, all they follow are their corporate interests.

Some things just need money to be thrown at, i don’t have a problem with benefiting from money of corporations. It also makes it more accessible for people who are not able or willing to pay.

There are paid distros already out there, but there will always be the option to ignore them.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
