Nice, but I think this is not an accurate representation of Linux gamers. A lot of Linux gamers play open sourced games on open sourced platforms like lutris.
I pirate most of my games. The only game I play on Steam is sometimes guilty gear.

I play most of my Steam Games on Linux, but for one or two I have to login from a Windows partition. Does that count me as a Linux user as well as a Windows user? I’m primarily a Linux user so my rare Windows use should not be counted. I think quite a few are in this position and it could be inflating the Windows numbers a bit - but I doubt it’s suddenly going to push Linux use up to 10% sadly.
All it counts are the people that get the hardware survey (which is not nearly every user) and that decide to answer it. A neat thing you could do is, if you get the survey while on your Windows machine and want to do it in your linux system, just kill the steam process without closing the survey and open steam on your linux system and you should get it popping up again.
Good that it’s based on the survey - I was worried it was the hardware specs we share with them that may be auto-updating.
