Linux users are gooners confirmed.
Do you guys realize how much 40% actually is in a single year? That’s crazy. Don’t just look at the 5.1%.
I’m sure it’s heavily influenced by the Steam Deck, it being a great device for porn and all, but still.
It does correlate with the numbers Steam released a few days or weeks ago.
Windows 11 not installing on “older” machines is big too.
We really need to thank Microsoft. They’re pushing a LOT of people to try out the free stuff.
Now I want to see the usage stats for e621.
You wouldn’t be surprised :3
That’s all me ur welcome gais
If they’re anything like me, it’s the old laptop that you’d install Linux on as an experiment.
And maybe that laptop was only ah… Semi-retired at the time.
So what you’re saying is that there are more wankers on Linux nowadays!???
Maybe they’re just watching it for the plot.
Well, been * ahem * told by a friend of a friend that there aren’t videos there were “Your friendly neighborhood geek goes into the house of a hot milf to upgrade her Windows 10 machine to Arch and she shows them how hot she found her Linux install skills and how thankful she is”, so that seems unlikely.
Haha!
But uh…I would watch that. That sounds pretty hot.
This pretty much HAS to exist.
I am very suspicious of the -26% Apple marketshare. It makes me feel like there’s more to this than it seems at first. There’s no way 26% of Apple users stopped using Apple devices within a year.
Edit: maybe it could be caused by a large user base increase that shifted the demographics, but this fast? And the PornHub bans across US states started only this year for the most part if I’m not mistaken, so it shouldn’t affect this data?
They said in the report that they have grown marketshare in Asia and Africa, as less people use apple in those regions the percentage dropped.
2024 was the release of iOS 17.4, when Apple allowed third party browsers to use their own engine instead of WebKit/Safari as a layer beneath. So it could very well be that Firefox Mobile and Chrome Mobile on iOS don’t get registered as iOS Device in this survey due to their user agent.
No browser uses a different engine yet (presumably because Apple only allows them to offer this in the EU, under draconian conditions).
I was gonna say, I haven’t heard of any rewrites yet, and it is probably GDPR or some similar regulatory compliance.
This is only for iOS and the user agent will still report the OS as iOS. For macOS it was always possible to run third party web engines.
But we don‘t know how pornhub analyzes their data. All the other statistics don‘t support their statistic.
Even if true, that would only explain the difference for mobile users and not the decrease in mac os use.
I don’t think third parties engine-based browsers are even available for iOS, given that Apple only allows that for EU users.
Wpuld this data get screwed up by VPNs?
i doubt it. the user-agent is generated by the browser
In Hub we trust.
Windows grew?
More wankers every year.
the age of linux is cumming upon os.
ok this is really bad , ill see myself out…
As long as you don’t use any of the windows and use the front door like my pet penguin, I won’t mind.
And there’s a kernel of truth in there and by that I don’t mean the kernel of an apple.Not what the distro meant by release
take my angry upvote!
I have nothing constructive to say. I laughed too much at this.
I have ph blocked at dns level, what genres our fellow Linux friend enjoy? There is a difference with other os?
I would assume BBT’s. (Big Black Titties)
Nice.
My apologies, this data is misleading. Most of the new traffic is actually just me mass downloading and data hoarding porn across thousands of VMs. Whenever I need to rub one out I ssh into one of them and watch it that way. Keeps it off my main machine and keeps my browser history clean.
Georg Hub, is that you?
Rube Goldberg machine but for masturbation.
Instructions unclear. Penis stuck in fan.
Kinky
Yeah but your ISP knows someone at your address is consuming a metric ton of corn.
Shit man, are the ISPs running the sewers now too??
🌽
Just open private browser window.
Pornhub is lowkey a very skilled tech company. Delivering a quality video platform on the scale they do is incredibly difficult.
Also obligatory: Year of the Linux Desktop! 🎉
Netflix but for horny people
“Netflix and chill” has lead me to believe those 2 Ven diagrams overlap quite a lot
Pornhub and get to it
“Netflix and chill” but with a distinct lack of chill.
I don’t like their company because they are also like the meta of porn in the sense that they bought up all their competitors and have made a monolith service
I made it to the final round of interviewing with them a couple years ago. I think it would have been interesting to work for them. They have PHP and even some Laravel in their stack.
Can’t believe they turned you down. Would’ve loved to hear about PH developer stories
Yeah I was a bit surprised too, they even told me how well I did during the interview and how I was getting stuff right that most of their candidates get wrong, and they made it seem like I should expect an offer from them. I think the dealbreaker was that I hadn’t worked with message brokers before.
First time I’ve heard of message brokers. I guess I’ll have to learn that if I want a job with PH
If you want a computer programming job with them then yeah definitely.
Apart from hosting an ad service that served malware, and having their user database leaked more than once.
apparently: the same goes for its patrons; i’m sure i’m responsible for atleast 1 percentage point. lol
