I’m doing MY part!
I want to see Linux and macOS chip away at Windows as much as the next guy but calling a rise to 2% a “surge” seems laughable
it is when you are consistently below 1%
thats like almost twice as much and millions of users in absolute numbers
I don’t think it’s necessarily about beating Windows. What is significant is that Linux use is slowly growing to a point where it shouldn’t be ignored. Those of us firmly in the Linux camp benefit from that and it makes it easier for newcomers to kick the tires.
Frankly, I don’t care whether people use Windows or not. Not my business, not my problem. Use what works. I’m just happy my own shit works, whether it’s 2% or 80% market share. Linux gaming has been a breeze lately - easier than I remember Windows being - and it’s awesome. We are in a really good place and I hope it keeps getting better.
2% is more than double the usual share prior to the steam decks release.

Just switched from Windows 10 to Nobara this morning!
More Linux than MacOS users, that’s pretty cool.
Some of that may as well be considered active sabotage on Apple’s part.
Yeah, their gaming strategy is laughably hilarious: forcing a new graphics API on developers, going through the trouble of copying Proton into their Game Porting Toolkit, but then not allowing devs to actually ship games with it, etc.
