The resolution of this market is going to depend entirely on whether the market creator counts Chrome OS (a Linux-based desktop operating system) as "Linux".
Chrome OS is a custom Linux distribution built using the Gentoo portage system, with various custom UI components and similar, largely Open Source with a handful of proprietary bits. I think it'd be reasonable for it to count.
(speaking as trader, not mod)
I think "whatever comes up on google" refers to things like:

https://itsfoss.com/linux-market-share/
These all give numbers of ~ 3%. They count "ChromeOS" as separate from "Linux", so you don't add them together, ChromeOS is a separate thing regardless of what's under the hood. The question is "linux" clarified as "what comes up on google", not "linux based things" or something broader, and not a deep dive technical definition.
It already has according to statcounter, the first result when I search on Google. Their desktop stats for November show 2.77% for "Linux", and 2.48% for ChromeOS (which is Linux as well).

@jonmast ChromeOS shouldn’t count just because it’s Linux based. It has a very different set of users than other Linux distros.
@ShadowyZephyr I was hoping for a clarification from @zlare@zlare, it could be interpreted either way
