StatCounter, a company specialized in analytics, just released their global August 2025 report that contains multiple market share statistics related to tech and the web. Among those reports, StatCounter releases a Desktop Operating System Market Share report, and the August 2025 report contains some good news: the Linux desktop market share reaches 11% in France. A first in history It’s the first time Linux has this much popularity in the desktop field here in France. Of course, Linux already “wins” in a lot of fields, especially for smartphones (Android). But it’s the first time since the StatCounter reports were published (January 2009) that it has reached this point.

Hello! I’ve been thinking of starting a blog for the past few years, and I guess I’m doing it today! Here, I will share my adventures. I’m a passionate developer, but I also love doing some DevOps here and there, especially with Docker compose. I’m also interested in everything server-related, especially in building my own home lab one day (but, for budget reasons, is impossible - at least yet!).

I run Fedora Workstation with Gnome on both my laptop (a Lenovo IdeaPad Pro 5 Gen 9 14" custom built) and my desktop. -I cannot imagine using W*ndows now- ...
