The prediction about Linux breaking 2% is interesting. As a Linux gamer is does often feel like we're such a tiny minority that rapid multiple growth wouldn't even make a difference, but something has really changed over the last year. A lot of people who are Linux-friendly but choose Windows for their PC and macOS for their work machine are buying Steam Decks and loving it. The Deck is getting covered like crazy in mainsteam gaming media (possibly this is a google-created echo chamber around me as they know how to get me to click, but I don't think that's all it is). I don't see the waves converting en masse, but things are really happening in a way I've never seen before, and have hoped for years. Related, I have a lot of love for what Steam is doing for Linux.
