Interestingly, if you filter to Windows, the Steam Deck GPU doesn't even show up

An other way to look it is
total deck users: ~0.17%
linux deck users: ~1.27*0.1372 = 0.174%

So we can't actually measure windows deck users (total-linux) but this is a good thing, it means windows deck users are too few.

It seems there is a BUG with trends about december.

December data do not exist when you are looking the trends. I hope this will be fixed and data won't be lost.

Quoting: EikeWindows 11 might play a role as well.

They already have more marketshare than linux :(

Quoting: dubigrasuRecently I had it (the survey) three times in a single day.
I didn't had any hardware changes (which is also likely to trigger it), just some various distros testing.

Surveys for me are a bit rare, I actually had one yesterday and the previous was more than a year ago I think but every time I get the survey, I get it on every machine I login that day, yesterday I got two surveys.

I would guess a big part of the flatpak is fedora, if I am not mistaken they push it more than other distros.

They do not do that for Flight of the Amazon Queen.

Quoting: minidouI still don't understand what a user is supposed to make of "Steam Linux Runtime".

Although I do agree that it is not as useful as it sounds to many people that unfortunately believe the distro fragmentation myth , (the obvious best would be the everything to just work with native runtime) but at least it is way-way better way than the runtime to be bundled with steam by default. It was an obvious blunder that steam is bundled with an 32bit ubuntu 12.04 runtime by default in the first place.

So it is clearly positive.

The best would have been helping the game developers do linux right.

The fragmentation problem is not that a linux executable is not compatible with every distro. This is a myth. The fact is a linux executable work in every gnu/linux.

The real fragmentation problem is that developers do not know what is really supported and what will be depraceted or very depended is specific environment. And I would not blame the developers, the information about linux is scattered.

Quoting: JJNovaIf purchased on the Humble Store, is it a download or a steam code?

steam code only. When there is drm-free download they say so. for example:

https://www.humblebundle.com/store/hollow-knight [External Link]
gives both drm-free download and steam.
