We see the nearly 33-year-old OS’s market share growing 31.3 percent from June 2023, when we last reported on Linux market share, to February. Since June, Linux usage has mostly increased gradually. Overall, there’s been a big leap in usage compared to five years ago. In February 2019, Linux was reportedly on 1.58 percent of desktops globally.
Not once you get on the Web.
I don’t know what you call old. Also not once you get on the Web.
Yessir, and for me that could be a sufficient reason alone. Sad that conkeror is no more usable for a browser.
Atleast i am acutely aware of what is phoning home(Unlike M$), I avoid G services like the plague, but whenever i am forced to use them they sit in a separate FF profile, I know what links what and who are in kahoots with whom: If you take the approach that going on the web is equivalent to waltzing in a big public market square, and apply the appropriate precautions, you can ensure you’re late night pillow searches are never linked back to your G account.
My hardware is atleast 13 Yr old at this point, and it runs the latest Linux kernel and the Gnome DE just fine, Video playback and the general Internet is just ‘fine’; you can equate it to providing a mobility scooter to an old grandma who is mentally fit
Going on the web is equivalent to waltzing into big port city’s cheapest and biggest brothel.
OK, so it’s 13 years, I was imagining c2d.
I would equate the darkweb to that moniker and not the general clear web (that is at this point running on the infrastructure of just 3-4 companies, so its more like a choice between malls than individual vendors)
What?
No, “the darkweb” is actually cleaner.
Core 2 Duo
agree to disagree
I once nagged my friend to install Zorin Os lite on his c2d laptop with 2gb of RAM, he still uses it to this day
If you don’t surf the Web much - yes, still usable.
