Linux reached 10% of the desktop operating system market in Greece!
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.

Be it for economic reasons, be it for any other reason this is really good news! Kudos to Greece and to all Greek people. My country, Italy, is still below 1% as of June 2023 according to statcounter so there's still a lot of work to do! Seeing Linux as an option to bring back to life second hand or old hardware, preventing wastes and promoting circular economy is an idea I really like.
