Narrative updated for the September 2026 edition.

Lithuania stays 21st at 3.78 (June: 3.90). Developer density is good (3.84, pillar 5.57, 11th) and grassroots adoption middling (4.42, 13th), but the two hosting pillars are among the worst in the EU. The public-sector pillar is 1.11 (26th): www.vilnius.lt and www.lrp.lt have no EU component (Cloudflare for web and DNS, Microsoft for email) and lrv.lt keeps only its email in Lithuania. The private-sector pillar fell 0.62 to 4.01 (24th): 60% of the 491 measured .lt domains are hosted outside the EU, 51% on Cloudflare alone, the largest share of any EU27 sample on a single non-EU provider.

Strengths

  • Developer ecosystem (5.57, 11th).
  • Sovereign browser share of 16.22% (13th).

Weaknesses

  • Public sector (1.11, 26th). Presidency and capital rate 0.0, government 0.33.
  • Private-sector hosting (4.01, 24th). Domestic hosting is led by Interneto vizija, Kaunas University of Technology and Hostinger.

Outlook

Three official sites on the same US front end explain most of Lithuania's position. That is one decision, and a reversible one.

Historical context

2020 baseline

In 2020, Lithuania was a "laggard," with underdeveloped frameworks and one of the weakest OSS ecosystems in the EU, critically hampered by the absence of a civil society ecosystem.

2024 progression

Lithuania has advanced significantly. A new 2024 law mandates storing public code in a state-run repository and prioritizes open source solutions. The government has also begun sharing resources on GitHub, fostering a more open environment.
