As 2012 Dawns, Mint Leads the List of Top Linux Distros
Times change, and so do popularity trends in Linux distributions....

is it true?

while uncle Mark continues [developing] on unity and gnome 3... clap clap clap to mint guys (from a debian guy :)

big ciao to everyone!

Old article already (December) but yes, we think it is true. The introduction of Unity meant a 40% increase of Mint usage according to a blog post of last year.

I guess it comes down to how much faith you put into DistroWatch as the only information source. Enjoy

Even if the Mint usage weren't higher, Distrowatch clearly shows that more people are interested in its Linux Mint page, in "Last 6 months" even twice as much, if you don't count Kubuntu(etc.).
