    And on DistroWatch (last 30 days) its still place 16, just above NixOS. :D Shows again why DistroWatch shouldn’t be used as a generalized popularity comparison: https://distrowatch.com/index.php?dataspan=4 (Note the link will have different data after time goes on.)

        No, they don’t. Its actually described. Distrowatch just tracks how many clicks the pages on Distrowatch has. That’s all. But lot of people don’t understand and take these numbers as general popularity index.
