Linux prebacio 4.5%

With just seven more months of support left for Windows 7, the South Korean government is planning to migrate to Linux, according to the Korea Herald, which notes that the Interior Ministry will begin "test-running Linux on its PCs, and if no security issues arise, Linux systems will be introduced more widely within the government. The Herald quotes the Interior Ministry as indicating that the transition to Linux, and the purchase of new PCs, would cost about 780 billion won ($655 million), but also anticipates long-term cost reductions with the adoption of Linux. The report doesn't mention a specific distro, instead "hopes to avoid building reliance on a single operating system." "Before the government-wide adoption, the ministry said it would test if the system could be run on private networked devices without security risks and if compatibility could be achieved with existing websites and software which have been built to run on Windows," the report stated.

Linux marketshare on Steam is Dropping Like A Stone

Valve has made a lot of investments in the Linux ecosystem funding developers of a range of projects like the Mesa graphics stack and KDE Plasma's window-manager kwin. The efforts are not bearing fruit. The Linux marketshare on their platform dropped by 0.08% in June leaving Linux distributions with a marginal 0.76% of total Steam usage.

The operating system numbers in Steam's hardware survey for June 2019 are not fantastic if you are among the small vocal minority who enjoys Linux as a gaming platform. A loss of 0.08% market-share may not seem like much and in a broader context isn't nothing. It is actually a big loss percentage-wise since Linux only had a 0.84% market-share in May after growing 0.02% since the April.

Ubuntu's decision to render Steam unusable on their distribution by dropping support for 32-bit software in future versions of Ubuntu and other road-blocks sure makes us wonder why Valve would even bother with Linux. Ubuntu did back-track a bit with a promise to keep 32-bit support in the next version when Valve announced they will no longer consider Ubuntu to be a "supported" platform - but their plans to drop 32-bit support in later versions have not changed.

Drugim recima, Valve je trebao da sam povuce svoj projekat sopstvenom distribucijom, kad ih je Ubuntu tako lako otpisao, a tu opet dolazimo do toga da ima previse distribucija koje treba podrzati, eto, sada ne radi na Ubuntu, umesto da se to razresi, hajde da naivni korisnici desktop linuxa opet zgubidane i instaliraju neku drugu distribuciju, samo zbog Steama.

Nije ni cudo da se Linux raspada.
