I think it was me. I just installed Steam on my Linux machine to give Darkenstein a try. That might have pushed it over 3%.

    I have to imagine the whitelisting to specifically steam deck is only going to get worse because publishers only know how to publish to console and windows. they'll fingerprint the hardware and move on

    I don’t think the Windows 11 people are ever going to be converted short of some catastrophically poor management at Microsoft.

    You'll still only get a very small subset of people willing to even attempt to switch over to Linux in those events.

    It isn't even about disliking change or 'using what you're used to' at this point, since Windows is drastically changing all the time (for the worse) but most people just get used to it as the "new normal" and we're the weird ones for trying to actually take control of the situation, and look for better alternatives.

    The only way this is going to significantly shift is OEM-installed distros like SteamOS.
