probably has to do with windows 11's unrealistic system requirements, most computers are perfectly fine but aren't able to update so people switch to linux since buying a new pc is not very affordable especially in the current economy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Wait... Linux desktop is beating Apple in Turkey?
Do students use Linux in schools, or is there an economic reason (i.e. Apple products are too expensive to buy with the current inflation)?
At least 1% is from me. Uninstalling and reinstalling Linux 15 times in one day due to something breaking.
I also enjoy shouting "Wololo" at other people's computers, only to have them boot into Linux unexpectedly.
Finally a proud material about my country 😅
