I think you’ve missed large segments of Linux’s user base; you’ve definitely missed Android devices using MIPS processors.

Name one recent android device using mips. There are, to my knowledge, only a handful of mips android devices (literally).

There was an announcement for a 64bit mips android device for 2016 (Warrior i6400) but I didn't hear anything about it. Did you?

Also there was an ainol tablet with the mips architecture (nov07) which flopped (those are the only instances I can recall where mips on android really came into play).
