Yes, that is a thing. People have already posted about increase in linux and they assumed Steam Deck. There is no actual number saying it’s the steam deck, it’s just assumed. Plus, this goes back to Valve controlling the numbers, they can sell any number they want and the linux side could be close to the truth. Valve having this much control is the problem i’m talking about.
Or any of the other sources that break down Steam numbers by distro?
Oh but of course Valve is lying because they totally don’t have literally thousands of developers (many of whom are multi-billion dollar corporations) relying on these numbers for sales projections or anything…
You should use yours instead, gaminglinux is based as he always reports everything under Valve in good lighting. He can’t be considered a good news reporter, a blogger yes but not a news report.
Phoronix reported their findings within Valve website which again leads to only sources being Valve. If you were told the criminal did kill someone by the criminal themselves than you have a bad court case
Ok, but why to they want to lie about these numbers? Inflate the steamdeck market?
