Linux adoption is real. The LINUX COMMUNITY isn’t real. You can break down Linux adoption into more detailed metrics like Linux desktop adoption, Linux adoption among gamers, etc and those are all real things that we may or may not be able to put numbers on and may or may not desire to grow.

Adoption and community are separate things. The guy asking seems to be concerned what the community things and what effects it has to them. As for me, I don’t care which term you or anyone uses, as long as it is clear from context. I don’t know why you say the Linux community isn’t real though. As I explained earlier, its just a meta word for collection of communities related to everything Linux.
