According to the StatCounter survey, Android is the most popular of all operating systems. Defeat Windows with a score of 39.49% and 36.63%, making it the world’s most personal device. According to a DAP survey, Chrome OS is not as popular as Android, but it is slightly better than other Linux-based desktops (0.6%) with a 1.3% score.

In fact, to collect popular data from Linux distributions, DistroWatch will be a good place to go. This is the most comprehensive Linux user data collection and news release site.

DistroWatch page click rankings are the most direct way to measure the popularity of Linux distributions and other free operating systems on this site.

The ranking shows that the most popular Linux distribution in the last three months was Manjaro.

 

Google Trends is also a great way to get the popularity of Linux distributions.

 

A week of search data showed that Ubuntu scored the highest.

  • Ubuntu:91
  • Debian:18
  • Red hat:6
  • SUSE: 3
  • Manjaro: 1

Mint ranked third when Manjaro was replaced with Linux Mint, which means that while Manjaro has many fans, more people are more interested in Mint.
