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.

The increase is not 1 and 1.5 percent but 1 and 1.5 percentage points
tbh i don't really see the point in mentioning this.
Because original is incorrect. For the first increase 0.5% to 1.5% is an increase of 200% while the increase in percentage points is 1. The reason it's important is that it can skew the readability of the statistics to a degree where the numbers at best are confusing and at worst are misleading. In your case you accidentally understated the significance of the increase.
Thank you for that explanation!
