When looking at the Steam Linux breakdown, the SteamOS Holo that powers the Steam Deck is now accounting for around 42% of all Linux gamers on Steam.
While the increase is great, it - sadly - doesn’t look like it.

Even though this is mostly because of the Steam Deck, it’s still great news. More people get to try out Linux and find out how good the support for gaming on Linux is nowadays. Some may even feel compelled to switch to it on their main machine, especially after Microsoft drops Windows 10 support and forces everyone to upgrade to Windows 11 (which, while certainly better now, still feels like a downgrade IMO).

Agreed, and as a side not the steam deck is actually fucking awesome.
I made the switch fully recently. It’s honestly nicer overall for sure. Glad to see things picking up. The more that move over, the more support Linux will get.
Is there a breakdown of Steam Deck vs other Linux?
literally open the article
I was hoping someone would be kind enough to tell me.
It’s also the thumbnail for the link. I don’t know what the input is for other apps but on sync I could long press it to hover the image with the breakdown and one of the others I used just makes the previews fit to begin with.
But since I’m such a great servant to random people, deck: as in title, arch Linux and Ubuntu: 0.1 and change, Manjaro and mint(? I already forgot): 0.0something … I have 256kb of memory and most of it is reserved by bloatware.
I come to the comments so I don’t have to read the article as well.
Then I’ll add extra comments using only the information in the comments section.
“Spikes”? Come on, guys, .04 percent is a rounding error.
It went from 1.5% to nearly 2% thats quite a big spike
