Russia is beginning the process of transitioning from Windows to Linux. Most likely as a way to avoid sanctions and to no longer be under the control of a US multinational corporation.

    China will be doing the same if they haven’t already started the process. Apparently DPRK has some cool homegrown distros as well.

      I believe they already started doing it a few years ago.

      China already has one of the most (if not THE most) polished linux distributions out there. It’s called Deepin.

        They also make the best android (AOSP) variants, MIUI on xiaomi, and huawei’s newer harmonyOS.

      They have started. I saw a news article about it on lemmygrad a while ago.
