Sadly there aren’t even Indian manufacturers with linux preinstalled. I’ve heard of starlabs, slimbook, tuxedo, system76 etc. only to find out that most doesn’t ship to india and are not availiable in the stores like flipkart, amazon and local stores, where most of people computers. Still, still India is at 15% now and what if market already has linux preinstalled systems!
As much as I hate to say it, I wonder how much of these are Chromebooks
It looks like ChromeOS is reported separately in those stats
Growth is being driven a lot by the Steam Deck.
This is mostly from browser stats though.
Sure, you can browse on it, but I wouldn’t have thought it enough to skew the numbers in any meaningful way.
Time to Sort the Steam Deck out like ChromeOS, then the Linux market goes back to 2%?
Right? RIGHT?
Some of it’s India.
