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

To a point. Let's be honest it's going to be more like an S-curve since you can't go past 100% market share, and some people will refuse to switch.

And people not wanting to switch is fine imo. Having competition will likely help all OS's get better over time

i mean i'd prefer the competition to be BSD and such, not windows and macos

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.
