The year of the Linux desktop everyone! Everyone?

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Thanks to all of Valve's effort with Proton, Steam Deck and their funding of people working on various other bits of Linux code like GPU drivers - the Linux share on Steam as of March 2024 bounced back to a near multi-year high.

After an odd dip in February, where we saw a rise in Windows 10 and Simplified Chinese, Linux has jumped up a little again.

Although the details are still a bit odd with Windows 10 seeing a bump again, but we saw both Simplified Chinese and English as overall languages each rise for March as well.

You can see the Linux stats over the past few years on the GOL Steam Tracker.

SteamOS Holo 64 bit (Steam Deck) 44.22% +0.67%

Freedesktop SDK 23.08 (Flatpak runtime) 64 bit 5.97% +0.45%
