Pornhub is lowkey a very skilled tech company. Delivering a quality video platform on the scale they do is incredibly difficult.
Also obligatory: Year of the Linux Desktop! 🎉
Netflix but for horny people
“Netflix and chill” has lead me to believe those 2 Ven diagrams overlap quite a lot
Pornhub and get to it
“Netflix and chill” but with a distinct lack of chill.
I don’t like their company because they are also like the meta of porn in the sense that they bought up all their competitors and have made a monolith service
I made it to the final round of interviewing with them a couple years ago. I think it would have been interesting to work for them. They have PHP and even some Laravel in their stack.
Can’t believe they turned you down. Would’ve loved to hear about PH developer stories
Yeah I was a bit surprised too, they even told me how well I did during the interview and how I was getting stuff right that most of their candidates get wrong, and they made it seem like I should expect an offer from them. I think the dealbreaker was that I hadn’t worked with message brokers before.
First time I’ve heard of message brokers. I guess I’ll have to learn that if I want a job with PH
If you want a computer programming job with them then yeah definitely.
apparently: the same goes for its patrons; i’m sure i’m responsible for atleast 1 percentage point. lol
Apart from hosting an ad service that served malware, and having their user database leaked more than once.
Probably Steam Deck users with that handheld device in one hand and their handheld device in the other.
the age of linux is cumming upon os.
ok this is really bad , ill see myself out…
I have nothing constructive to say. I laughed too much at this.
Not what the distro meant by release
take my angry upvote!
As long as you don’t use any of the windows and use the front door like my pet penguin, I won’t mind.
And there’s a kernel of truth in there and by that I don’t mean the kernel of an apple.

Sorry guys… My gooning streaks are skewing the data; I’m the masturbations Georg and shouldn’t have been counted…
New gens are ruining everything - “vertical video” gen-z, really?
Y’all need a spanking.
Those gen y and x ages are whack
Also, I hate zoomers and their vertical videos too
Yeah, idk what tf those age brackets are, it’s like they haven’t updated them since they first set up the graphics for the statistics.
Yep totally agree. And I also like boobies.
I’m sorry. There are people who go to an adult hardcore porn site and then type in “Suitable for work”??? Like do you think the site wouldn’t get flagged at your work?
HR: IT detected that you watch porn at work.
Employee: I’m not, it’s all SFW videos
HR: OK, no problem then.
Maybe they’re just hoping to find a sexy fuckable whore ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
If a step-coworker gets stuck it better not be physically or it’s NSFW. If it isn’t physical, they just get fired bcs their ass isn’t doing the job.
Idk, I saw a post on pornhub stats on I believe a map community that showed that cuddles were quite a popular tag. And if it’s wholesome and comfy looking why not?
Ok I have problems with these cutoffs for ages. My wife is 57 (1967) and is very definitely a gen x’er.
As someone else said, they probably kept the original age bracket. I’d say it’s at least 5-6 years out of whack. Early Ys are starting their forties, late ones their thirties.
Same here, but it also depends per country since well average life spans, average age to buy a house, average age to start a family etc all have an impact on when a new generation starts.
Kinda bummed they grouped the fetish all in one category. Thought we were getting weird here
… is it possible that these uneducated plebeians just put “fetish” in the search?
(jk)
maybe they’re looking for new ones lol
We don’t even look at porn on our computer anymore- we look at it on our phone?I’m somewhat proud my generation is actively seeking out parody porn. Those videos tend to be higher budget and more sex positive (less gonzo misogyny).
Edit: well, should caveat that by saying relatively less misogynist
Is that supposed to be they watch videos in vertical…or they get off on watching vertical videos?
“Oh yeah, tilt that camera. Tilt it harder. There we go. Oh yeah! It’s standing straight up.”
I’m sorry about my generation. Pretty ashamed about the vertical video thing
Vertical video is better for content focused on a single standing performer, because it allows as much of the screen resolution as possible to show the body. Horizontal is better for a performer lying down or any traditional horizontal sex acts, for the same reason.
I’m probably reading a little too far into this, but IMO Gen Z is much less interested in “simulations” of intercourse and is more interested in something “real”, i.e someone doing a dance. Intercourse feels like a fantasy, like you’re supposed to imagine that you’re the one having intercourse, it’s that fantasy which is appealing. Something like dancing or dirty talking is more honest about what it is, since a video of someone dancing or talking is essentially the same experience as if they were actually there in front of you. I believe that because Gen Z is more digitally native than older generations, they see digital content not as a substitute or fantasy for a real thing, but rather as a real thing in itself, and the nature of the content they consume reflects that. Another example of this is the shift from real-life streamers who fake personalities but pretend that they are presenting their real selves, to vtubers - who implicitly acknowledge that they are playing a fictional character for their stream as symbolized by their avatars. The human streamers are a fantasy substitute for a real human friend, but with a vtuber the content does not pretend to be different than what it actually is - a pretend character putting on a show for your enjoyment. By acknowledging its artificiality and integrating it into the content itself, it shifts from being something “fake” and “simulated” to being something “real”. To me it’s the exact same dynamic manifesting in a different area.
Now of course, I do understand that vertical content also simply means you don’t need to rotate your phone, and that Gen Z is almost exclusively using the Internet on the phone vs. the desktop as older generations will. But this too is essentially a reflection of the feeling that digital content is not an artificial recreation confined to a specific display area (a TV or computer) but rather perpetually available (your phone), as would be appropriate for something which has taken on the status of being real rather than fake. The two forces reinforce each other, imo.
…at a quick glance-scan, i though that third row under gen X read ‘starfleet’: did a double-take and was disappointed…
Who doesn’t like a uniformed threesome between two dudes and a flower, or android/ghost/green lady sex, or just a speedrun to ejecting the core?
Boomers = 1950-1964
Gen X = 1965-1979

My apologies, this data is misleading. Most of the new traffic is actually just me mass downloading and data hoarding porn across thousands of VMs. Whenever I need to rub one out I ssh into one of them and watch it that way. Keeps it off my main machine and keeps my browser history clean.
Rube Goldberg machine but for masturbation.
Instructions unclear. Penis stuck in fan.
Kinky
Yeah but your ISP knows someone at your address is consuming a metric ton of corn.
🌽
Shit man, are the ISPs running the sewers now too??
My man out here making the library of Alexandria for porn
Georg Hub, is that you?
Just open private browser window.
Do you guys realize how much 40% actually is in a single year? That’s crazy. Don’t just look at the 5.1%.
I’m sure it’s heavily influenced by the Steam Deck, it being a great device for porn and all, but still.
Windows 11 not installing on “older” machines is big too.
We really need to thank Microsoft. They’re pushing a LOT of people to try out the free stuff.
It does correlate with the numbers Steam released a few days or weeks ago.
That link is amazing… they even have maps 😂 !
The pornhub blog is surprisingly good reading every once in a while. They take their data analysis seriously.
This chart is fascinating, although it’s unfortunate that so many states don’t have a specific category assigned to them. I just can’t help but notice how many weeabo degenerates (I am part of said degenerates) must be living in Wisconsin, and Oregon being furry makes me wonder how many furries live there.
I am very suspicious of the -26% Apple marketshare. It makes me feel like there’s more to this than it seems at first. There’s no way 26% of Apple users stopped using Apple devices within a year.
Edit: maybe it could be caused by a large user base increase that shifted the demographics, but this fast? And the PornHub bans across US states started only this year for the most part if I’m not mistaken, so it shouldn’t affect this data?
2024 was the release of iOS 17.4, when Apple allowed third party browsers to use their own engine instead of WebKit/Safari as a layer beneath. So it could very well be that Firefox Mobile and Chrome Mobile on iOS don’t get registered as iOS Device in this survey due to their user agent.
No browser uses a different engine yet (presumably because Apple only allows them to offer this in the EU, under draconian conditions).
I was gonna say, I haven’t heard of any rewrites yet, and it is probably GDPR or some similar regulatory compliance.
I don’t think third parties engine-based browsers are even available for iOS, given that Apple only allows that for EU users.
Even if true, that would only explain the difference for mobile users and not the decrease in mac os use.
This is only for iOS and the user agent will still report the OS as iOS. For macOS it was always possible to run third party web engines.
But we don‘t know how pornhub analyzes their data. All the other statistics don‘t support their statistic.
They said in the report that they have grown marketshare in Asia and Africa, as less people use apple in those regions the percentage dropped.
Linux users are gooners confirmed.
So what you’re saying is that there are more wankers on Linux nowadays!???
Maybe they’re just watching it for the plot.
Well, been * ahem * told that a friend of a friend didn’t found any videos there were “Your friendly neighborhood geek goes into the house of a hot milf to upgrade her Windows 10 machine to Arch and she shows them how hot she found their Linux install skills and how thankful she is”, so that seems unlikely.
Haha!
But uh…I would watch that. That sounds pretty hot.
This pretty much HAS to exist.
Does porn work well on Linux ? looking to switch
If your kink is Penguin …
Bash:
yay -Ss stepsister-stuck
I hate the step sibling stuff so much.
Why? Did you get stuck in a washing machine yourself at some point?
On a more serious note, I remember reading an article once about this phenomenon. About how it’s not some widespread latent sex fantasy to fuck step-siblings. Rather it’s an odd reflection of how algorithms poison the content in this attention economy. The more unusual the content is (without being outright objectionable), then the more attention it gets for being so unusual. That starts a wave of new creations from content creators to jump on the bandwagon for the popularity of the content that seems to be getting traction. Then pretty soon anyone not catering to this “demand” is an outlier and loses out, so eventually this theme of content floods the entire ecosystem.
Seems very plausible. The title just puts me off.
I hear ya. I really wish we could go back to the good old days of “who ordered the extra large sausage pizza” and " I’m here to check your plumbing, ma’am".
Yeah I mean if you’re going to make weird fetish stuff, do it I just hate that some videos that I might enjoy watching are kind of ruined for me just by the title.
This a serious question? If so, yes it works like a normal computer
You need to check PorntonDB

No I was riffing on all those “does x work on Linux” threads

Guys, we’re losing big to mobile devices. Although I’m glad Australia is still going strong at 12% desktop computer.
65.2% (globally) are Android so technically we’re winning!
I wish I could run Linux on my phone.
Maybe you can
Oh neat, I’ll have to look into this.
Something something Android is Linux 😅
Kinda hard to use your desktop in bed or hiding in the bathroom.
Tablet pornography must be nice.
That seems like someone who made a plan, and then lived out their best evening.
I imagine those tablet Pornhub users probably prepared themselves a nice mixed drink, set out some snacks, and got all cozy in a bathrobe first.
Tablet pornhub sounds like some kind of intentional self care.
