These people keep bringing up “mArKeT sHaRE”

  1. Linux is free. How would it get market share?
  2. It’s quite difficult to get an accurate “market share” since user-agents can be faked.

EDIT: I wonder if Microsoft are making anti-Linux accounts to try and hamper Linux.

    I don’t think it’s fair to compare something like VSCode to vim and emacs. There’s a wide range in between, including FOSS tools. I can understand not jumping to something with a learning curve like vim, I’m more annoyed they don’t learn one of the super accessible GUI alternatives!
