StatCounter reported that desktop Linux reached over 4% market share for the first time. I've used Linux for years. Here's why I think it's finally catching on with more people.

    I am using statcounter for india numbers not steam. Steam numbers are not overinflated by these office pcs. Also india have 1.5billion people so any gain here have a significant impact on stat counter worldwide numbers.

        Yet we don’t see the same growth in steam hardware survey (which is dominated by steamdeck). I wonder why.

                It seems like they have some agenda or something. Maybe an MS Windows sector employee?
