    Wait, If Windows is 96.21% and Linux is 1.96%, then MacOS is 1.83%?

    Wouldn’t that make Linux 2nd place?

      Before opening the comments, I spent several seconds contemplating if I should mention this, or if people would think I was some pedantic nerd dickhead and downvote me to hell. Glad someone else already covered this.

        I guess people just trying to do things with what they have. I had a friend who plays LoL on a Mac. She also used Steam on it but there were very few games.

    Even if it was all gamers, that’d push a lot of companies to care about Linux a whole lot more. Venn diagram of people who spend a lot of money in tech stuff and people who play games is almost a circle nowadays.

    Math don’t add up, Linux would be second because whatever else would only have 1.83.

    Second place baby!

    Even if it’s Steam Deck, this just goes to show that desktop Linux is totally viable; it just needs more commitment from companies

        Windows 10 has support into next year. Personally I use Linux and Windows but I’m sticking with gaming on Windows until support runs out. I think next year will be the year of linux

    Is that before or after Steam Deck users? Would it be higher than 1.96 if we included steam deck in the count?
