Why Linux runs the internet
Web Servers: Linux dominates the server market, with estimates suggesting it runs over 70% to 96% of the world's web servers. This is because of its stability, security, flexibility, and ability to be customized for different needs.
Supercomputers: Linux is used in all of the world's 500 fastest supercomputers, a market it has completely dominated since 2017.
Smartphones: Android, the most popular mobile operating system, is built on the Linux kernel, meaning it powers the majority of the world's smartphones.
Other Infrastructure: Linux is also a popular choice for other critical internet infrastructure, such as networking devices, and is widely used in banking and stock exchange systems.
Wifi routers, smart TV sets, DVD players, IoT devices.
You should join the leaders by switching to Linux.
