I’m not sure how accurate StatCounter is, given that most Linux users use adblockers. However, according to it, Linux has almost a 14% desktop share in India.

      We use TCS and Accenture at my work and I’m aware of us using Cognizant and HCL as well. You’re bang on fuck all those companies and also “first world” compankes for fucking the local employment market and fucking overseas workers.

      Race to the bottom. Nothing matters but the bottom line.

          Do you have any interest in relocating outside India? You seem to have a good domain of English and softskills on top of some Linux. I wouldn’t mind taking a look at the personal projects you mention

          When you’re ready to go back to the job market, I recommend you to join a company that develops a product. Not a service company that will sell you like fresh meat to its clients, like the one you listed.

      I don’t know much about this CHWTIA. But I do know someone who works at Capgemini, can you tell me why they are considered exploitative? Genuinly curious.

      C is for Cognizant btw. But Cisco wouldn’t be too far off.

      It’s a desi-fied version of WITCH, for those familiar with that term.

      Why are these companies the worst? It’s a honest question since I actually don’t know much about them.

          Well, l*wda is also sexist and misandrist, and used just as often, and so are mixed slurs like bkl or mkl. Every culture has these kinds of slurs. And it will be decades before that changes in India, or any country, because “westernisation” will no longer gain cultural traction, as it is beginning to hurt many people brazenly.

        chatiya? chetiya? chitiya? chotiya? chutiya?

        Why are you censoring yourself? I’m not sure that word means anything in English.

            That may be, but most Hindi speakers are quite concentrated in one area of the world and IIRC make up less than 10% of fediverse or something.

              Many Indians simply type English on the internet, because foreigners cannot understand Hindi. However Indians among themselves often use Hindi, just like Chinese, Russians, those who speak Spanish, Esperanto or Portuguese (Brasil). That does not mean those languages have less speakers, they are just not visible on “western corporate” internet.
