      We don’t know, but Windows market share went from around 96% to 92% which is definitely a reliable stat. It could be because they have missing entries for Nobara, Bazzite, Fedora and Zorin which are all popular with people migrating from Windows. Worth mentioning that Flatpak will be under Ubuntu Core.

        I read elsewhere that it’s probably what you said. A mix of others like cachyos, mint etc.

        And yes totally. When I grew up Linux was nowhere except servers and some very few supernerds who mained it. MS is really helping with all the shit they do 😁

        Steam client is not listed as a Linux operating system. There are two entries, 64 bit and 0 64 bit.

            You have to choose “Linux only” from this list, otherwise the bare link has different results:
