OpenKylin is already starting to be implemented on government systems and private companies all around China.

    I was thinking population, and therefore users of the OS. I feel like a lot of western companies are already bending over to tap into the Chinese markets, so if they had to support Linux to do that for software, maybe they would.

    GDP comes to mind.

    There are other metrics as well surely, I wouldn't be surprised if China was amongst the biggest OS user markets as well.

    If we'd be talking size as in territory, I doubt anyone cares what the Russian market does.
