Steam's Linux user share is steadily growing and making a dent in Microsoft's monopoly even there.

Uh... I used Linux on the desktop for 19 years, and desperately wanted this to happen, but last time I looked, Linux still only accounted for a couple of percent of Steam platforms. Maybe this will change with the Steam Deck, but that's a gimme.

Proton is fueling this growth more than Steam Deck I would think. I know, it's a double edged sword, but still.

I am. Those are the only people who have PC's that I know. That's the point. For non-corporate use, if PC gaming didn't exist, there would BE no PC market.

My company has a Linux Slack channel and that's where I finally got to know a lot of 'real people' who also use Linux lol
