I still can't quite believe it but the Linux user share on Steam has not only remained above 1% for three months, it's actually risen again.

truly 202X is the year of Linux on the desktop

don't get me wrong, i'm glad i switched, but the kind of things Linux communities find newsworthy is amusing

    With the EAC port coming, it's a much easier sell to anyone who has heard of Linux but never bothered to make the switch due to gaming support. I can sell it to my friends who are a bit nerdy as "Linux support for gaming is as good as it's ever been, running windows at this point is like being a car guy who can't drive stick" or something like that

      Ironically driving stick is less fuel efficient than computer-controlled automatic transmissions
