Linux user share on Steam hits second highest percentage in years

Quoting: NonjuffoAccording to Linux GPU stats 1.82% (AMD AMD Custom GPU 0405) were surveyed on Steam Deck. So the 14% share increase doesn't come directly from Deck users (Not that anyone claimed it did).
In the previous month, Deck APU was recorded as AMD Van Gogh. Interesting to see this change.

PS. The %1.82 Steam Deck record is among Linux users, not everyone.

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoThey should release an stable version every SIX months, and not every year.
They do, a new maintainence release is made every six months and versioned as x.0.y so next one will be 7.0.1 . And they bump up the first number every year.
