with counts...
6042 Linux 83%
 889 Windows 12%
 220 FreeBSD 3%
  71 OpenBSD 1%
  41 Darwin .5%
  10 NetBSD .1%
   5 SunOS
   4 DragonFly
   4 Bitrig
   1 GNU/kFreeBSD
   1 ElectroBSD

Market share doesn't really say anything about ability to fill the
relay role, after
all, any well managed OS can run a daemon and pass packets relatively securely.
If you're not bent on Linux, or are already on one OS, choose any
other OS, learn
something new. Diversity is not just about diversity in relays.
Personal diversity
feeds back into the crypto, privacy, freedom sphere in more ways than one.
