Yeah, even apple’s iCloud use Linux. Well I’m not 100% sure on that, but what else would they use?

The only thing that does not run on Linux are windows and Mac computers, android, game consoles, and maybe digital things that are about as powerful as a thermometer.

Almost everything else is Linux.

I know there are other systems, but they are a much smaller percentage than Linux.

BSD (FreeBSD, etc. Not including Macs here). They're not, but it's still a potation viable option.

Android is Linux of course. And PlayStations, for the last several generations, use BSD.
