Impressive. Now with system encryption and flatpaks it's getting better and better.

Worth noting how these are to be used... according to Distrowatch:
The DistroWatch Page Hit Ranking statistics are a light-hearted way of measuring the popularity of Linux distributions and other free operating systems among the visitors of this website. They correlate neither to usage nor to quality and should not be used to measure the market share of distributions. They simply show the number of times a distribution page on DistroWatch.com was accessed each day, nothing more.

But we like it when we're up near the top, for sure!

Not so to those who are looking to switch to Linux and the people that don't know it's a hit counter.

MX has now passed Mint to become #2 on the 30 and 7 day page hit rankings...no doubt because of the interest in the MX 18 beta and RC releases.
The little distro that could!

Have to agree here. It was scanning through the up and coming distros at Distrowatch that first made me aware of MX.

#2 on 3 months, 30 and 7. In mid January, most likely on 6 months. Inspiring start for 2019.
