    Why is China and Japan so low? Is that just bad reporting? Is it a language / character support issue?

    I’d think China would want their own government run distro they can control.

      Having set up japanese input method on both ubuntu and arch not to long ago: It’s a bit janky. Defenetly not just “hit install”.

        Mosc isn’t bad. I even set the keyboard shortcuts to their Windows IME equivalents cause it’s easy to remember.

      China could potentially be explained by them not giving a fuck about software piracy – at least in the 90s and early 2000s – so money was never a motivation to move to Linux.
