2012 GNOME User Survey Results

Written by Michael Larabel in Software on 20 December 2012 at 04:19 PM EST. Page 3 of 3. 17 Comments.

Most of the survey respondents were running GNOME on a desktop or laptop but GNOME on tablets remains quite a small fraction.

Just over 500 of the respondents have ever contributed to GNOME.

Not many people go through on contacting the GNOME team.

Other common Linux desktop environments used by the respondents were Xfce, Unity, and KDE.

Lastly, most people were using GNOME without Compiz or any other window management options.

Thanks to everyone who participated in this year's GNOME User Survey.
