Professional film makers use Linux

Andrew Cunningham writes about the Apple Mac Pro and compares it with the newer but not that expandable Mac Studio – but the most interesting part at least for me in that article was that professional film makers don’t actually use these that much. And the bigger the studios, the more people use Linux instead of a Mac for their artistic work (and smaller studios seem to prefer Windows). See the graphs here in case you don’t want to go and read the whole article:

60% market share for Linux, who would have thought?

I would have suspected to have Linux on about every render farm (and you need lots of rack servers to make a movie), and something like Windows and Macs on the artists’ desks, but this shows otherwise perhaps – interesting.

So as someone who makes music on a Linux system, am I ahead of my time? 😀

Like always, thanks for reading 🙂
