    AFAIK they’re using the browser agent to identify the os. Maybe that obscures the os in some cases

      That would make sense. Its a bit sad though… would be interesting to have “real” numbers…

        I have to use Chromium with a spoofed Windows/Chrome Browser agent on Linux specifically for my bank. Apparently using Linux is an insecure environment in their eyes and they block login attempts completely.

        I wonder how many Linux users spoof Windows browser agents for similar reasons.

        Counting OS statistics by tracking website is never going to tell “real” numbers.

        But what is “real” numbers anyways. Does a raspberry pi count that runs home assistant?

        Does a laptop that is only used once a month count the same as one that is daily active?
