We Are All Linux Users
Linux is the most widely used operating system on the planet... and most people have no idea.
Even if you’ve never typed ls -la or installed Ubuntu, odds are you’re already using Linux every single day. It’s quietly powering the devices, servers, and services we rely on. And in 2025, it’s more dominant than ever.

Android? Linux. Chromebooks? Linux. Most of the internet? Linux servers. Your smart TV? Probably Linux-based. In 2025, Linux is baked into nearly everything. That includes cloud services, IoT devices, embedded systems, game consoles, cars.
It’s not just for sysadmins anymore. If you use Spotify, Netflix, or Google, you’re already using Linux behind the scenes.
