Linux market share is not the same as Grub market share. Torvalds is against the GPL v3 because he explicitly does not mind locked bootloaders and signed kernels.
I peddle that to my coworkers for no other reason than because I don’t know how to deal with Windows garbage when they run into a problem. It’s more for my sanity than anything else.
What if we count WSL and Android?
Counting Android is just lying. ChromeOS and WSL are a stretch, but you can make an argument for them.

Shudders
Linux kernel is Linux kernel. Few desktops run Android, though.

WSL definitely. It’s a gateway drug I’ve peddled to many a developer.
WSL on my work machine is a godsend. Otherwise I would not be able to tolerate the dev environment on windows.
This is why I had to switch. It was just too clunky to get CUDA and Pytorch and Tensorflow set up in Windows. In Linux, it was a total breeze.
Edit: And then I thought, “well, wouldn’t it be great if I didn’t have to use Windows to use Linux?”
Yup. First comes WSL, then comes a VM, then comes the good stuffs.

For me its history repeats itself with dos and msdos.
