    Be it for economic reasons, be it for any other reason this is really good news! Kudos to Greece and to all Greek people. My country, Italy, is still below 1% as of June 2023 according to statcounter so there’s still a lot of work to do! Seeing Linux as an option to bring back to life second hand or old hardware, preventing wastes and promoting circular economy is an idea I really like.

    What?

    Yes!

    I need to check the source though.

    OP correct the spelling: Ελλάδα, not Ελάδα.

    I had noticed that we’ve been pretty high on global statistics for years, but hadn’t seen anyone point it out.
    Και το βλέπεις και στη πράξη, οι linuxάδες δεν είναι σπάνιοι, και όταν μιλάς σε τεχνικούς/support δεν σε κοιτάνε σαν εξωγήινο αν ακούσουν για Linux.

      Sadly, they still run windows… Wish that will change in the future…

      Edit: mostly cracked versions of windows : ) (and the older the sector, the older the windows version (eg. xp))
