Initially Valve's Steam Hardware & Software Survey for December 2025 showed Linux at 3.19%, but they appear to have amended it with a nice boost for Linux.
Considering Linux desktop adoption was around 4% the last time I checked, and considering this is just Steam users (e.g. some might strictly be using GOG or similar, some don’t play games at all), this is pretty big.
