Gooners’ choice
THIS IS THE YEAR OF LINUX DESKTOP.
Coomers! Assemble!
It’s the year of the Linux desktop, baby. Been waiting 40 years for it. And will be waiting 40 more
The Steam Deck can run a browser, right?
They used to include Nintendo 3DS on the survey results. I can only think of one kind of PH user that would prefer Steam deck.
Of course, why?
Yeah, I lost my girlfriend, so … no judging please !
You can use CTRL+R to search you command history. Much faster thst hitting the up arrow. I am sure she will turn up.
Sorry guys, it was just me

cool and all but what % of people watch porn on their “big screen”? hard for me to remember that last time I wanked it at a desktop. shit, it might have been at work which would require windows.
You can open the link and find out. It’s 11%.
Yeah, from my Debian VPN.
It doesn’t work like that. They use the self-reported user agent from the web browser that is requesting the page.
Weird tug of war
How much of that was furry porn?
22.4% of 5% base, so in actuality a 1% increase. While the title is technically accurate, it’s very misleading.
Nah mate, it’s very much exactly what it says. A ambiguous statement would be “Share of Linux devices on pornhub grew by 22.5%” which could be either in relative or absolute terms. Traffic increase is pretty much number of requests made from a Linux machine grew by 22.5%.
It’s not at all misleading. That’s how percantages work. It plainly says ‘+22.4%’, which is fully factual and accurate. Your ‘actual 1% increase’ is a false statement. It’s a 1 percentage point increase, which is completely separate from the regular percantage.
I’m struggling to understand why you think the title is misleading. Could you elaborate on your rationale to help me understand? 🙂
Do you perhaps have an alternative title that you would suggest? Would you be satisfied by something like, for example, “Pornhub saw a 22.4% increase in Linux traffic (from [e.g.] 5% to ~6%) over 2025”?
Sure! As is currently written, it gives the first impression (to me, at least) that the traffic share of Linux has jumped from x% to (x+22)%. Now I understand that this is subjective, but I believe that’s how many people would read it at first glance as well.
Again, there’s nothing technically inaccurate about it, but the 22% number there is imo distracting and tends to lead to misunderstandings. I would personally write it as “Pornhub sees Linux traffic share increase from 5% to 6% (22.4% increase) over 2025”
