The stack overflow survey only captures a small portion of the population. It is going to be mostly corporate software development companies.

Ubuntu is still fairly common in the enterprise when it is required by corporate overlords but it is way less popular when users are given a choice. Ubuntu doesn't have much to offer these days and it is riding on inertia.

I have a general philosophy of reinstalling my systems from scratch every few months and honestly Ubuntu is among the easiest for that (Debian is close second, but corporate overlords freak the hell out)

Ok so you have no penetration in the corporate environment

SteamOS for Jan 2025 shows Arch with 9.41% and Ubuntu with 8.97%, so gamers are using it

Wikipedia shows it with as the only distro with a pulse

some pretty strong fumes eh?
