I can’t help but wonder how they arrived at that number, 193,000 Linux users. What kind of analytical wizardry or data sorcery could have generated such precise numbers with such certainty? And don’t even get me started on the claim of 27 million South African readers. I’d genuinely love to know more about how these figures were calculated.

@uastronomer it bothers me when popular sites I enjoy reading, like MyBroadband, focus too much on numbers for the sake of numbers without explaining how they arrive at them. This takes away from the real value of the content and the bigger picture. It also sets a misleading standard, making others believe they should prioritize metrics over meaningful insights, but maybe that’s just me.
