Poland ranks ninth at 5.98, with the EU27's highest Sovereign Browser share at 26.00% — Polish desktop users are the most Firefox+Opera-oriented in the union. Combined with good .pl hosting (raw 0.54), Poland has solid grassroots and private-sector pillars. The weakness is developer density (2.46).

Strengths

  • Highest Sovereign Browser share in the EU — 26.00% Firefox + Opera, edging out Germany. Polish desktop users have the most non-US browser preferences.
  • Strong private-sector hosting.pl raw rating 0.54, with major Polish hosters (home.pl, Atman, OVHcloud Warsaw) well-represented.
  • Linux desktop share of 3.57% — at the EU27 mean.

Weaknesses

  • Low per-capita developer density — 2.53; Poland has many developers in absolute terms but the per-capita ratio is mid-pack.
  • Public Sector Health at 6.67 — below the perfect-10 cluster.

Outlook

Poland is one of the more notable grassroots stories in the EU — the cultural preference for non-US browsers is unusually strong. The economic-development question is whether that grassroots culture can translate into domestic SaaS / cloud growth.

Historical context

2020 baseline

In 2020, Poland was an "emerging" nation with a significant split between its geopolitical posture and its domestic software policies. It had a strong strategic agenda but an underdeveloped formal open source policy framework.

2024 progression

Poland still lacks a dedicated governmental body for promoting OSS. However, the 2021 Law on open data allows agencies to open-source publicly funded software. Initiatives are emerging in specific sectors, like the e-Health Centre's preference for open-source solutions.
