Valve's latest Steam Hardware & Software Survey is out now for December 2023, and it shows that Linux and Steam Deck overall finished 2023 on a very positive note.

    Didn't Pornhub see a non-insignificant rise in Linux as well? I wonder how much the steam deck accounted for that as well 😅

    One of my paradoxes, im anticapitalist and I'm greeting valve for their work on steamdeck (not an owner) and proton.
    That's participate to democratize the use of Linux as a daily OS a lot.

      Yeah they did a great job to promote an alternative to windows. They are behind Proton.

      There are lots of great corporations out there. Most of them are just overshadowed by the biggest and most abusive ones in the headlines.

    Yay, linux use was around 1% the beginning of 2023, now it's so close to 2%, I hope we see an exponential growth by the end of this year.

    a year and a bit spent on the steam deck makes me wonder if daily driving linux would be all that hard. i've tried before but was always bounced off by the stupidest little things, like not being able to find wi-fi drivers or whatever. but nowadays i'm starting to think all that is worth it to be off windows
