Those just show which distros have the best advertising, not which ones people
like the most.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

I was prepared to give it a good fair test, but enough is
enough.
Virtual desktops in unity are a travesty.
Minimizes handling is a travesty.
Panels are a travesty.
Unity is a solution to a problem that does not exist.
I a classic "throwing the baby out with the bathwater"
mistake.
Added together with the gnome nautilus issues xfce and
thunar is a no brainer.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

I'm curious as to how do they tell whether one is using Ubuntu, Xubuntu or
Kubuntu.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

They would need more data, for instance many people are using several years old
vetrsions of (x)buntu because it works. It does not follow that any particular
instance merely identified as Ubuntu is running the Unity desktop, it may be
straight Gnome. Kubuntu may be an old one running KDE3, etc. In any case, how
does a web site reliably identify the actual OS? I would expect that Kubuntu,
Lubuntu and Xubuntu etc will normally show as straight Ubuntu in anything
associated with the browser, as they do in other ways. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Here's some more speculation for you: those are flickoffs
from a Google search as people desperately try to find how to
get all their third party peripherals working properly; or
are looking for another distro as easy to install, pretty looking,
but actually works. NB Ubuntu did actually work for me, for a
while, but my hardware and software don't stand still, neither does
Ubuntu, and they ended up chasing each other round in circles...
