当然，Linux 主导着整个云行业（Web 托管、云计算、数据仓库等）。在这里，我们只关注桌面 Linux 的市场份额。


**如果你是 Linux 世界的新手**，可能不知道，Linux 不是一个操作系统，它是一个内核。但是，为了简单起见，我们倾向于将 “Linux” 称为操作系统。你可以在我们的解释文章中了解 [Linux 是什么](https://itsfoss.com/what-is-linux/)。


有朝一日，我们希望 Linux 发行版在未来的桌面操作市场份额中占据主导地位。但是，当前的趋势说明了什么？现在是 Linux 桌面年了吗？


趋势每个月都在变化。去年，与今年相比，Linux 可能市场份额更多一些。因此，跟踪最新报告至关重要。


在这里，我们试图以来自不同来源的每月更新报告的形式跟踪最新趋势。


### 操作系统市场份额：2022 年 7 月

在可用的桌面操作系统（Windows、macOS 和 Chrome OS）中，Linux 通常倾向于占据**第三位**。

每个来源都使用不同的数据收集方法。市场份额不断变化，这就是为什么我们决定定期更新此报告，而不是单独发布关于市场份额微小变化的帖子。


**总体而言**，看起来 Linux 作为桌面操作系统在开发人员中很受欢迎，并最终影响游戏玩家和其他消费者作为替代操作系统。

Curious to know the latest market share percentage for Linux desktop? You don't have to do the research, we've done it for you.

Every year, we discuss the year of the Linux desktop. It can’t be helped when we see an increase in the operating system’s market share in the consumer space.

![Linux desktop market share](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/05/linux-desktop-market-share.webp)

Of course, Linux dominates the entire cloud industry (Web host, cloud computing, data warehouse, etc.). Here, we focus only on the desktop Linux market share.

**If you’re new to the Linux world**, Linux is not an operating system; it is a kernel. But, we tend to term “Linux” as an OS to keep things simple.

You can learn [what Linux is in our explainer article](https://itsfoss.com/what-is-linux/).

One day, we hope that Linux distributions will dominate the desktop operating market share in the future. But what do the current trends say? Is it the year of the Linux desktop yet?

The trends change every month. Last year, Linux had a better grip over the market share compared to this year. So, it is vital to track the latest reports.

Here, we try to keep track of the latest trends in the form of monthly updated reports from different sources.

## Operating System Market Share: October 2024

[official website](https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2024/technology#1-operating-system). Furthermore, the stats for Linux-based distributions are briefly given on the chart.


Every source utilizes a different method of data collection. The market share constantly changes, so we update this report regularly instead of making separate posts on slight changes to the market share.

**Overall**, it looks like Linux as a desktop operating system is popular among developers and is eventually influencing gamers and other consumers as an alternative operating system.
