Steam survey for December 2025 shows Linux holding to 3.19%

Quoting: mattaraxiaThe trend is insane.

10% by 2030 or so seems inevitable now. I think at that level, it's the point where people can largely stop caring.

I mean, if you just want to see Microsoft lose OK that won't be done.

But at 10%, you'll be able to buy a mouse or a monitor or whatever, and assume its firmware is on LVFS. Any game publisher not bothering to at least test with Proton, will be truly an outlier.

From the consumer's point of view, pragmatically, it'll be about the same as 50%.
ASSUMING the bestfit is correct... yes 2030 for 10% is possible

They provided updates of how it was going but then mentioned there were technical challenges...
So with AoS2 announced it will be interesting if they go for a linux-native or rely on Proton, there was hope of native for higher performance and AoS could get crazy!

Quoting: Geppeto35Nice, you are at the "logistic" stage. What's next?
Well thats the "fun part"... keep watching... The profile can only ever be sigmoid since it will plateaux. Hopefully the noise is masking where the true inflection point is...
