The drop last month was because Chinese users increased by 30% (which were removed or whatever this month).
So even if you’re going to be pedantic and ignore the whole of February and just go from the January stats to March directly, 3.5% to 5.3% is a massive jump that doesn’t make sense. Why suddenly this month? Why not last year when W10 support ended?
One possible explanation is that maybe the old 3% Linux base was wrong and now something has been accounted for or has been corrected, so in reality it has been around 5% for a while, which is now shown correctly. That’s why I’m saying I’m gonna wait a bit to take these stats at face value.
