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.

Image shows a tweet with the header "and people STILL try to convince me Linux and Windows are better when the DATA clearly shows otherwise. SMH" with an image attached showing the following:
"Operating systems by current version" Mac OS: 14 Windows: 11 Linux: 6
Gnome goes brr
You people be bringing Linux distro versions, which are indeed double digits, but the graph really be showing the Linux kernel version, not the distros. And Linux kernel version is indeed 6.7 at the time of writing this

and that green is very tacky
People need to stop using 3D bar charts: they're completely useless to read. Due to the camera angle '11' looks more like 10.7 on the axis
This plot is so stupid it's like comparing oranges to chairs. If they wanted to compare Kernels then compare Linux with XNU and Windows NT.
Didn't know XNU and Windows NT are hybrid kernels, interesting.
