From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

who is using linux through their web browser
Users of ESXI, 3CX, Univention and Nextcloud
would that show up as their display server though? surely VMWare et al run some other display server on the backend and then stream to clients via VNC?
No, that's why the web frontend graph is at 0%.
And those systems don't have a display server, they open up a web server to interact with.
if the graph is really at 0%, and not 0.0001%, why's it there at all?
also, i'm really confused as to why an HTML webui would qualify as a display server.
