All Linux, but not all Intel. Been looking over some stats here <https://www.top500.org/statistics/list/>: still a few POWER and SPARC systems, and I think Sunway and ShenWei are MIPS derivatives (total of 24 non-x86, by my reckoning). And while the “Operating System Family” pie is solidly one colour (all Linux), the “Operating System” graph is a bit more diverse, with some distro names (like “bullx SCS” and “TOSS”) that I hadn’t heard of before.
