More detailed information about Linux users

Hey,

It seems that a lot of Linux users are flagged as "Linux" users, without any info about the distro their using.

Would it be possible to have a more accurate picture of the Linux ecosystem into the OS section and get rid of all those "Linux" users ?

Lastly, would it be possible to have an icon next to the name of the distro, just like you do it for mobile platforms ?

Looking forward to hearing from you guys,

Thanks !

The problem is a lot of browsers don't send full info on the linux distro in their user agent string. We check for some common ones (ubuntu, debian, red hat, etc) but yeah from what I've seen, 90+% of anyone with "linux" in their user agent string don't contain anything beyond that.
