I mean, if we're going down that route - anyone with an Android phone. Chromebooks. Windows users with WSL. Arguably iOS/Mac users too to be honest.

And..

..Most smart TVs run on Linux. Lots of DVD players.. cameras.. doorbells.. other embedded devices.. and routers.. Mars drones.. probably some peoples' fridges. I mean heck basically anything with a vaguely complex chip could be running Linux.

..Maybe we should just nationalise programmers socks and give them to everyone.
