About the March 2026 hardware survey, what is "64 bit" and "0 64 bit"? Why do they represent 25% of the linux devices? (lemmy.ml)

If we remove them from the survey, this leaves us with 75% of 5.33%, which is something around 3.96%.

I think the 5.33% is a bug, 3.96% sounds more realistic and in line with the growth linux was having before.

I think this is an error on the survey. Was anybody able to talk to Valve about this? I forgot which email to send this question to.

I don't know. A lot of people are saying this correlates to Chinese New Year, but I don't know how that correlates to video game playing. I do know they're largely only playing a handful of games like PUBG, Dota 2, and maybe Counter-Strike, so maybe they're coming and going according to new updates releasing for one of those games, but they do come and go in waves.

    Time off, supposedly using computer cafes, as I've heard it explained here.
