So if you put 50 Steam gamers in a room, one of them uses Linux. Possibly unknowingly since it’s just their Deck thay have in their bag, but it’s something.

Having a mainstream platform running Linux brings a tear to my eye.

Now we just need Valve to start releasing generic SteamOS install images, so when Windows 11-hating Windows gamers come over and ask which distro to use, we’ll have a definite answer for once.

You make it sound like all of those 2% are Deck users.

Just oversimplified rhetoric. Apologies.
