Pornhub is one of the pre-eminent porn sites on the web. Each year Pornhub releases a year in review post with anonymous details about the site's users. More and more Linux users are visiting Pornhub, Linux saw an impressive 14% increase in traffic share in 2016.
[...] While Windows continues to dominate when it comes to which operating system users count on to watch Pornhub (about 80% of desktop users), Mac OS and Linux are on the rise, with Mac OS up 8% in traffic share and Linux up an impressive 14%.
Moving onto mobile. The playing field is pretty even here, with Android and Apple iOS almost at par with one another. Android leading with 3% more users on Pornhub than Apple iOS (47% of Pornhub's mobile users). Android's mobile market share has increase by 5% over the last year.
Look, it wasn't all me. I swear.

actual share [...] 3% Linux
...including the "14 percent".
As you say: misleading.
"Other"
Dollars to donuts, a significant portion of that is Linux boxen.
Robert Pogson mentions this often in his blog.
I like the first reply to your comment:
It's just sloppy sniffing by the site and/or poor configuration on the users' appliances.
There's also the possibility that some folks are having too much fun with their User Agent Switchers.
