"As in all statistics be careful as to what the data actually shows."

Well, it isn't just StatCounter that says that Android is way more popular than Windows (as is iOS). It is every single tracking website in existence.

Also, if you don't like tracking websites, you can look at device sales or activation. Android has about 4x the number of Windows and growing rapidly. Windows PCs have been declining in total sales for years. Android has been skyrocketing. This isn't even a question. Android has waaaaay more devices actively being used than Windows. iOS just has way more than Windows.

MSFT themselves says that they have 11% share in end user OSs. Mainly to get the EU off of their anti-competitive practices in PC OSs, but they still say it.
