as a brazilian, i have a few ideas as to why latam participation in the survey was so low and i don't think it has much to do with low linux usage
lemmy isn't very popular in brazil yet, even inside the brazilian fediverse. my current instance is a few months old and it is one of the first brazilian lemmy instances
