Not sure but the Steam Survey sometimes does it too, I assume some sort of background processing still going on and it eventually sorts itself out.
Gave me false hope :cry: next time I'll wait a few days before looking at the stats.

That being said, I did see quite a bit of momentum around me. Most of my colleagues not only finished switching to Linux for work, but also began to experience on their home machines.
At least here in France, quite a few of the mainstream tech medias are now regularly talking about proton/lutris & co (link [External Link] just yesterday this one). There's clearly something happening since the last few months on that side.
