I think I now know the reason of this weird data. The Unknown distro is actually *not
linux* system for most cases. We had this bug from the very beginning. We do not check OS
at all when defining the User Defined Value. If no linux distro is found then we report
it's as Unknown.
Check this out:
1. There is a big number of unset value for last 3 years (92%). But if you check the JBT
version of all unset values then you see that all of them are old JBT releases when we
didn't have that distro detection:

And BTW, do you see it keeps declining (new versions are being released and are not
reporting unset values).
2. If you take a look at the last 30 days only then you see that "unset" value
is just ~ 9% (they must come from the old versions as well). But the majority (82%) is
Unknown:

3. OK. Let's see what OS actually reports these Unknown linux distros. 99,82% of them
are Windows & Mac. And just 0.15% of "Unknown Linux Disrto" are actually
Linux:

I will fix this issue, so Unknown value will be reported only for Linux system.
