Counterizer is a plugin that stores a lot, a lot of information and statistics in the database, so much information that it only occupied almost 700MB of our database, in addition to making the site slower and more consumer of hosting resources, for this is that we decided to do without it, in order to improve the performance of the blog.
It happens that before deleting from the database all the information collected by him, we decided to take several statistics that are of interest to us and we believe that for you too 🙂
For example:
From which country do you visit the most? DesdeLinux?
As you can see, the highest percentage of visits come from Spain, Mexico y Argentina.
But this does not mean that the rest of you who are in other countries are not important, not at all ... Take as an example that elav and I are in Cuba, and this country only represents 1.58% of the total 😀
Greetings to all our friends in whatever country they are 😉
Which browser is the most used to access DesdeLinux?
This is a somewhat curious statistic, first of all we have Firefox with 45.46%, but in second place ... Google Home (with 27.33%)? Personally, it amazes me a bit, because Linux users have Chromium (4th place with only 4.65%), well, here are the statistics of browsers in general:
And now we will go into version details:
Versions of Firefox most used by our readers:
Versions of Google Chrome most used by our readers:
Versions of Internet Explorer most used by our readers:
Curiously we see that Internet Explorer v6 is the 2nd most used version ... who the hell is still using this archaic version of Internet Explorer? O_O ...
Chromium versions most used by our readers:
Versions of Opera most used by our readers:
This is for those of us who, like me, use Opera, we do not have a very high percentage but ... here we are, we are not invisible 😀
This has been everything in terms of browsers. Firefox is undoubtedly the most popular, something logical because the Linux community, which understands and defends Free Software, sees the fire fox as one of the flagships of the movement 🙂
Now we will enter what many I know they expect, operating system statistics ...
What operating system is the most used by our readers?
Naked eye seems that more users visit us from Windows than from any other operating system, right? ... well, that as I said is: naked eye
Windows versions represent a 35.54% of visits to the blog, while apparently only 31.14% of Linux ... well, that Linux that appears is generic Linux, that is, Linux systems that its version is not recognized (since the browser does not say what distro it is). Actually if we add this percent with the percent of visits from Ubuntu, Debian, Mint, etc ... we have to:
- Un 53.50% of visits are from users of Linux (2,614,723 visits)
- Un 35.54% of visits are from users of Windows (1,735,987 visits)
Even so it is remarkable that there are so many visits from Windows users, I suppose they are readers interested in Linux and Free Software in general, or we are the same geeks and nerds as always but that we access the site from the office or university, where the PCs have Windows 😀
What versions of Windows are the most used by our readers?
What versions of Linux (generic) are the most used by our readers?
What versions of Ubuntu are the most used by our readers?
And well, statistics of Android:
It is always good for readers to notice that their presence, that their visits are perceived, that they count ... for that reason and because I believe that these data are of interest is that I make this post.
As I said at the beginning we no longer use Counterizer, now we are using Google Analytics for statistics ... personally I still have my doubts about it 🙂
I hope that the visits of Cubans will increase at this time to improve the statistics
LOL how can it be that there are still people who use IE 6. Today I commit suicide xD
the bad thing is that your site recognizes Liferea and Midori as Safari
It is the plugin who recognizes it, a pity 🙁
The same can be said of many versions derived from Ubuntu (Mint, for example), the browser continues to identify them as Ubuntu.
I guess that 30-odd percent of Windows users is related to those Linux users who visit the site from their workplaces where, unfortunately, they continue to use Windows
Yes of course, universities, jobs, or just Windows users interested in Linux 🙂
To access the site I use Linux Tuquito interchangeably, which is an Argentine distro, Linux Mint 15, both from USB. And yes, I also use Win7.
Greetings from far away Buenos Aires
Miguel
Greetings from Cuba 🙂
In the statistics by country, the eighth place does not have a country name or flag... could they be the ETs that are ALREADY part of the community of DesdeLinux?… HA HA HA
Seriously, go with the blissful plugin; What a way to consume space and resources! Let's hope that with Google Analytics they get the same results.
Believe me they are achieved .. and better .. It's incredible, you can see the statistics and visits in real time ..
must be those of the ISS that use Debian xD
That must be it, since obviously your ISP must be encrypted.
It is possible, as well as that they are using VPN / TOR to be able to access this page from places as hostile as China and North Korea.
Linux is sure to be used on Mars… LOL!
The statistics are very interesting, KZKG ^ Gaara, and they reflect the interest of the Spanish-speaking world for the SWL.
Thank you
They actually reflect the Spanish-speaking community only 😀
Interestingly, we see that Internet Explorer v6 is the 2nd most used version ... who the hell is still using this archaic version of Internet Explorer? O_O ...
It's the same as I thought ...
Hold on Paraguay, present, since Ubuntu 12.04, with Chrome 27 (which does not appear just because it was recently updated).
Other times I access from Win7 with Chrome too ..
♫ Join the software ♫
♫ Share the software ♫
♫ Share the software 'cause the software is free ♫…
It is interesting that there are people who connect with Windows 3.1 ...
Most likely it will be virtual machines and not real ones. What's more, the version of Windows is recognized based on the version of the NT Kernel that it has (for example, if an Internet user accesses from Windows Server 2008 R2 with Chrome, obviously he will put it as Windows 7 based on the NT 6.1 Kernel) , except for the NT 5 branch, which version 5.1 is used by Windows XP and 5.2 by server 2003, respectively.
Or maybe some troll that changes the UserAgent HAHA
It may be, as it is also possible to change the Firefox user agent to make it go through Internet Explorer for more trolling.
I see that unlikely.
@ Windóusico:
And how do you explain that in the user agent it appears that I use Iceweasel with Debian, and on top of that, that it uses the Aero interface?
I mean, I find it unlikely that the statistics reflect the actual level of trolling on this website.
There are more Chromium users (like me) than Chrome, which unfortunately the user agent appears as Chrome, because in nightly builds it always appears like this (in my case I use Windows):
So it is a good look from Internet users who are interested in free software.
the windows share is worrying XDDD….
Don't tell me.
Not really that much, 53.50% of visitors use Linux while only 35% use Windows 🙂
alone? XD 3 out of 10 visitors use windows, it seems little to you? XDDDD
Man, I do not think it is worrying that people who have something abandoned to the penguin for reasons of time or whatever and we have to turn to Windows for whatever reasons, we continue to be interested in the linux ecosystem and free software 😉
What's more, in my case I have Debian Wheezy in VirtualBox installed with Netinstall and with TTY for more inri.
I was a Chromium user until a few days ago. For some time several pages indicated that my browser was out of date, and they urged me (?) To opt for another browser. Personally, I use Firefox to download videos only, or configure the proxy of my university. For everything else I move with, now, Google Chrome. Also at one point, I was one of the only Iron users.
I use Chromium 29 from Windows. What happens is that many times, the distros do not change the user agent to the versions of Chromium that they are going to edit, since by default it appears that it was Chromium (if you look at my comment, it will tell you that I use Chrome 29 , when in fact it is not, since it is illogical to think that version 29 of Chrome has arrived these days).
How is it possible that desde Linux admit a WinUser among your editors! bad very bad…
Fanboy detected!
Proof that I also use Linux is in these screenshots >> http://imgur.com/a/vVFeS#0
So if I use Windows, it is because I am in the institute where I study Computing or I am downloading Debian Wheezy (and there are no claims if I use Windows Vista).
iiOo zOi the eDyThoR ii I LOVE GuiiNdOusss !!!! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
INTErne eZplOorE RULZ !!!!
ROFLMAO !!!!
And the Ticos are the first place in visits from Central America, great 🙂
I would like to ask for an autograph from those who have visited this website from a Windows 3.1 computer.
I would also like to have his autograph, as it would really be something really epic.
The proof that those of us who enter through Windows are at university or at work is that we still use the old XP, when I get home I enter through my beautiful and fast elementaryOS 🙂
True Story.
Are there more Mac users than Debian users?
We are doing something wrong ...
XDDD that is not so, probably many debianites are in the linux XD section
To blame the user agents, it has been said (rather, to change them).
+1 XD
I am with Debian and very happy.
Come on CHILITO 6 °, hahaha, I haven't posted for a long time, greetings guys that are well! thanks for your great work
Regarding Google Chrome, I think the problem is that Chromium's UserAgent is identical to GC's, and it only shows "good" if one modifies it.
I'm surprised to see that Arch Linux isn't on the list, though of course it's also the UserAgent's problem, which simply shows "GNU / Linux."
You're right. That is why it does not show whether Chromium or Google Chrome is actually used (I use Chromium 29 on Windows at the moment).
Exactly, when ArchLinux is installed in the browser, the distro does not appear, that is, the browser's UserAgent only reports that it is Linux, it does not specify the distro.
the strange thing is that to be a Linuxera community the operating system that is used the most is windows, ops I am commenting from one: O! hahahahaha greetings!
Because some are working and cannot afford to use a LiveUSB, LiveCD or just install it. But as you can see, the user agent does not always tell the truth.
Actually the one that is used the most is Linux, read a little below the image 😉
This is what happens when people do not read the full posts but jump to comment as soon as they read three lines.
Obviously, if we add up all the figures obtained by the distros that have been recognized thanks to the fact that users have been able to modify their user-agents in their browsers, then, you are wasting the "large number" of Windows users who visit this site.
hehehe things in life ... as the admin attack the user Ubuntu, and it is the distro with the most visits. Xd
😛
We don't actually lash out at the Ubuntu user, but we're not fans of this distro either 🙂
We acknowledge the good and bad of each distro ^ - ^
And above, the one that gives more publicity with Debian thanks to the fact that Ubuntu has a package management
And above, the one that gives more publicity with Debian thanks to the fact that Ubuntu has a package management that really gives a lot to talk about (so far, the packages have improved, but they have already increased the number of debianeros).
man, we would have to break down that 30% to see ... of the other linux, perhaps you will take surprises.
Within that 30% would be Parabola (fork of Arch that is approved by the FSF and has the Iceweasel browser by default), Trisquel (an exorcised version of Ubuntu), thousands of personal distros (among them, Microsoft's internal distros and Apple) and finally handmade distros using Linux From Scratch (Gentoo is nothing compared to building your distro from scratch).
Try to see how I am identified ...
wow .. !! And I was surprised that Mexico is in 2nd place in its statistics .. !!! How good..!!!
The bad thing with my LM13 KDE distro is that no matter how much I want to modify the useragent, it will always look like ubuntu, fortunately with a firefox plugin things change.
Greetings to the whole community..!!
INTERNET EXPLORER 6.0???
they deserve deatheeeeeeeeeeee
hahahahaha, I thought nobody used it anymore.
You do well to put the full numbering 6.0! By God, where goes that 6.1 came out.
Holy Mother of God! Proof that the user agent can be trolled!
That's cheating! ¬¬
Bitch please!
I am so honest that I don't need to change the user-agent of my Chromium:
http://i.imgur.com/FZScyo0.png
Also, I'm already burning my Debian 7 disc to avoid these Aero crash problems.
greetings from Costa Rica being part of those 55137 readers
and keep growing desdelinux.net!
I cover the Czech Republic with 0,08% .. Not bad for a single person 😀
Not only you, but also those who use VPN for X reasons.
Well I don't think there are many people speaking Spanish in the Czech Republic and understanding Linux. In addition, I connect to the blog from 5 different PCs and I visit per hour more or less 🙂
I do not mean that, but that there are many people who are from other places that use VPNs and curiously their IP places them as if they were from countries such as the Czech Republic, Romania and other European countries.
I cover RHEL's, Fedora's I think another 0.02% and Mexico's, well, I think I've already put a black hand: p [spoiler] it's not true with Mexico [/ spoiler]
And finally I got the CentOS that I asked from one of my friends that I have around, who gave me the two CentOS DVD's that I asked for. Now I'll try it.
The country that most visits is Spain. I find it curious because I see more free software movement in Latin America than here in Spain.
Anyway, greetings from Spain to the entire Latin American community
Do not believe. In countries like Peru (it is the country in which I live) you can find PCs with Windows XP and / or 7 because the government accepted in 2006 the gifts of Microsoft with their respective licenses, thus strengthening the Warez market in Blank CD's / DVD's.
The good thing is that little by little the paradigm of dependency on Windows is changing and we are opting for distros such as Debian, Ubuntu and Fedora (there are already PC's with those distros at cheaper prices than those that come with Windows 7/8 for the obvious reason for the cost of the license).
Despite the advances made by webkit and all the browsers that use it, the truth is that Firefox deserves the applause because even with all the browsers against (I don't know if another, obviously apart from weasel, uses gecko) of a battle tremendous.
GOOD BY FIREFOX !!!!!!! 😀
(note: I don't like competition or rivalry within opensurce, I'm just happy for the effort of the mozilla community)
Despite having differences from Firefox, Iceweasel is the most successful fork of Firefox out there (it's available from Arch using the Parabola repo). And best of all, it knows how to discern such trivial functions as sending data to Mozilla.
Anyway, the improvements made for Iceweasel are already used in Firefox (hence its performance improvement in GNU / Linux).
Fix: Iceweasel is in the AUR:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/iceweasel/?setlang=es
And it is at its current version.
Ohhhh, Slackware is used more than Gentoo, tsss.
That's nice.
I am in favor of that figure. Also, Slackware is much friendlier than Arch in several respects.
Agree, stop that, it's fucking stable compared to all the distros I've used. But it has a very high level of difficulty when wanting to install packages that are not found in sbopkg or other semi-official methods.
I would love to include portage or zypper to slackware and it would be the best distro in the world, well if Gentoo changed all its source code packages to binaries, they would be an excellent competition.
I think that with Slackware, you will have more experience in exploring the kernel and thus get more used to the console than other distros (in Arch, if you do not know how to handle the console well, it will fall like a bucket of cold water).
Chromium in many distros appears by default as Chrome unless you change the User Agent, so in reality many of those Chromes are Chromiums.
Although in any case I think that most of them are authentic Chromes because it is the browser that users have in Windows and when they switch to Linux it is the first thing they install (until someone tells them that Chromium is the same but free), and the statistics add the Chromes of Linux + those of Windows (where it is already the # 1 browser).
It is true, unfortunately many do not touch the UserAgent so the correct distro or browser does not come out, so the data is incomplete.
true. Also, I use Chromium on Windows to prevent its silent update from consuming more resources.
That's right, Chromium from openSUSE identifies itself as Chrome
As is my case that I use Chromium that I have it installed in Windows:
http://i.imgur.com/pqJ6Bid.png
Anyway, this is the majority of cases where Chromium is used with the user agent that tells you it is Chrome when in fact it is not.
One question: do you use Chromium on Windows? I think that the first 4 times it was not clear to me. 😛
I do use Chromium on Windows, as I downloaded it from chromium.org, by going to this link:
http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-snapshots/index.html
And then, I choose the "Win" folder, I go to the last folder and download the "mini_installer.exe" file and it installs it faster than the official Chrome.
If you want to know how you can download Chromium and / or Chrome Canary, go to this link:
http://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/download-chromium
Maybe I should have put a label like this:
http://www.yaplakal.com/pics/pics_original/6/9/6/63696.jpg
Anyway thanks for the tip. 😀
that I know you could get off here: http://download-chromium.appspot.com (portable) or from here: sourceforge.net/projects/winchromium/ (installable), the link you put has never worked for me (I click and nothing appears)
When it comes to going to the Win folder, it takes almost a minute to load and in Firefox it tells you that the script is too big to process.
Anyway, that it works, it works.
It is a sin to love good software whether open source or closed… I have a Windows Vista x86 with a dualboot, Puppy linux, Macpup 5.29 frugal, I use Windows Vista for work and Macpup for personal use and bank security. By the way, I am one of the many who get the blessed be penguin instead of my beloved puppy.
I knew I was not the only one using Windows Vista alongside a GNU / Linux distro!
As for the problem of recognizing your distro, I recommend that you take a look at how to change the user agent of your browser for this blog.
O_O… I can understand using Windows XP, Windows 7 and even Windows 8, but… Vista? If in the opinion of almost everyone it is Microsoft's biggest failure of the last decade O_O
windows xp, is 100 times more vulnerable than vista….
Also, Windows 7 inherits some bugs that Vista had. And on top of it, Vista is Microsoft's second biggest failure ever.
The real commercial failure of Microsoft has been Windows Millenium, which when it came out had a lot of problems with the consumption of hardware resources of that time, in addition to the fact that the specifications were poorly made. With Vista, the error was not the specifications, but the NT 6 kernel came out unstable and only with Service Pack 2 it can be said that it is usable, in addition to handling the registry to optimize its performance and with a couple of updates, I can say that Vista is just as usable as 7, but also the NT 6 kernel is the same that Windows Server 2008 uses, so the user agent of many browsers cannot differentiate between a Windows Vista / 7 with a Windows Server 2008 alone or with R2.
Proof that I have my PC with Dual Boot is this comment made with Iceweasel 21 with Debian Wheezy just released.
The Internet Explorer v6 thing is really curious.
The same I say of your user agent.
long live internet explorer! ee
Debian Squeeze, Argentina and Firefox 21.0
Debian Wheezy, Peru and Iceweasel 21 here.
It is true what someone says in a comment above, many of us use windows we are people who are at work and we go to take a look at the page
Yes, but few are the people who work with Windows, since the applications with which they work or are impossible to work with Wine (understand by Adobe, Corel, Autodesk and others) or because they work with programming languages so unfortunate that not even there is the possibility of finding an equivalent in free software that is really useful (Visual Basic, Microsoft Access).
Ecuador and Sabayon present 😀
lol Internet Explorer 6 and Win 3.1 ……. xD what times those of the floppy disks here for now, hahaha.
Hey! The fact that there are more people from Windows (besides Win Xp) visiting the blog is a very good sign! This means that it is people who will also consider Linux as a possible update! 🙂
Most of those who visit with windows, are windowseros with dual boot XD.
As is my case (Windows Vista / Debian Wheezy).
It is still curious that linuxers use Chrome massively instead of Chromium ... Could it be that the proprietary / open source bar is more fictitious than real? 😉
If at the end of the day they are practically the same ..., just change the license and that good, right now chrome has flash ..., so that must be calling a lot of people.
There are more differences between Chromium and Chrome than the disgusting pepper flash:
1.- Chromium:
* Lacking Chrome Updater
* Pepper Flash Player is missing
* It does not have a built-in PDF reader or printing assistant
* The RLZ tracker is not activated by default for the synchronization of Google accounts
* The terms and conditions page is blank
2.- Google Chrome
* Has Google Update on Windows and Mac, which consumes resources and bandwidth.
* Includes Pepper Flash Player, which also devours resources and is worse than Flash Player
* It has a PDF reader and printing assistant, which together with Pepper Flash and Google Update hinder the performance of the browser.
* The RLZ tracker is activated by default, which in itself is not much of a hassle but in itself scares any paranoid about privacy.
* The terms and conditions page is according to the region in which one lives (if you live in South America, the terms and conditions of Google Argentina will appear).
There are several answers about the massive use of Chrome, there could well be cases like mine, in which we have an Android Smartphone and Tablet, so the use of Chrome becomes almost essential for all Google services, and with Chrome we maintain syncing across all devices.
Greetings XD.
Windows Vista has been Microsoft's catalyst for forcing hardware developers to make them more dependent on their users. Windows 7 inherits many of the problems that Vista had, plus it is impossible to boot a Windows 7 disk from a mainboard that is 100% IDE.
Microsoft's worst business failure so far was Windows ME due to the instability of the DOS and because the specifications were extremely poorly prepared.
Hello friends,
ArchLinux and Manjaro I guess they are within 31% of generic Linux ...
It would be good to publish these types of statistics periodically (1 or 2 times a year). The great variety of information that the numbers provide is very interesting to me.
A big hug from Argentina.
Peru in 9th. Market Stall. Finally there is a sign that there are people really interested in leaving Windows and moving to Linux!
Besides, I'm going to install Debian Wheezy with XFCE before I'm late (I've already left free space to install Debian, as well as having Slackware and CentOS on hand so I can test them in VirtualBox OSE).
To Wednesday with XFCE! I have 256 MB of Intel video and I already put Debian Wheezy with GNOME 3 Fallback (from yapa, with software-center 5).
windows !! o_o
Do not worry. I already installed Debian Wheezy on my PC, so my PC is complete.
windows !!!!! is garbage xDDD
jjhehehehe
From Colombia with lmde, I use chromium because it synchronizes me, all greetings
Being DesdeLInux of Cuban origin, I am surprised that Cuba is in tenth place for visiting this blog, I thought I was in a better place
And the most curious thing is that it is on the heels of Peru.
W0T ?!
Debian's Chromium has expanded the visibility of this page and leaves nothing blank.
As a replacement for Google Analytics they can use http://es.piwik.org/
Very good blog!
We do know Piwik, we tested it about 6 months ago but it did not reflect even 40% of the statistics, it seems that our volume of visits is too high and we have to do 'something' to Piwik to make it work 100%
Thank you for your comment 😀
This user agent thing is cool, very good for trolling = Nintendo xD =
Linus is my idol! ^^
