gridter.com site published the
results of a survey among Linux users.
1944 respondents took part in the survey. Among them were 92% (1795 people) of men and 8% (149 people) of women.
More than half of the respondents (58%) consider themselves to be confident Linux users, and a third (31%) - newbies. The remaining 11% of respondents declare with full confidence that they are experts in their favorite OS.
Users of Linux and other OpenSource operating systems are most annoyed by the “clumsiness” or lack of drivers for modems. Then, the second most popular answer was a huge variety of distributions. The third factor that annoys users is the need to tweak everything and everything in their OS.

Ubuntu (494 respondents, or 25% of respondents). In the second place, according to the survey results,
Debian shows off (271 votes and 14% of the total number of voters). Third place was shared by
