          Then what do you think is the reason, that I do not know, that results in so much Linux adoption in the country I live in?

            I don’t know. Your justification seems a bit weak. It’s not like piracy is not a thing there.

              I assume you know better than me about India, a country that does not have much awareness material about in global media?

                India is not the most financially constrained country in the world by far. If the explanation was just that, we would see a very direct correlation with the rest of the countries that are similarly constrained.

                Now, if instead of making rethoric questions you could maybe offer some arguments you would definitely be more helpful.

                  Our per capita income is not exactly healthy, and the wealth distribution is highly unequal. Linux is majorly used in South India, and among the techies that are older fhan Gen Z/Alpha, as millenials and older people grew up on computers instead of smartphones.

                    Same thing can be said of Pakistan and they don’t have a significantly high Linux usage.

        Quite possibly. North America still has too much disposable income to start making OS decisions based on pricing
