What happens in Finland?
UPDATE: There was apparently a similar development in 2022 according to the stats when Linux market share in Finland went up to +18 by July and then dropped sharply to 4% by the end of the year. I don't understand that, but maybe the data is flawed? (My apologies for any confusion this may cause.)
Hmmm, the country where Torvalds is from has the highest linux desktop market share? Not that surprising, but still cool!
Still the rate is crazy. Its about 4x the European average.
