Linux Gaming Dominance: Open-Source Usage Blows Past macOS on Steam
The latest Steam Survey data reveals a historic shift in PC gaming demographics, with Linux usage jumping past the 5% threshold in March. This remarkable surge means Linux now holds more than double the market share of macOS, signaling a major win for the open-source community. The growth is largely attributed to the continued popularity of the Steam Deck and the maturity of compatibility tools like Proton, which have made gaming on Linux more accessible and viable for a broader audience than ever before.
