Linux vs macOS steam usage comparison is… kinda nonsensical, since Linux has a whole ecosystem around making windows games run smoothly on Linux, whereas macOS doesn’t - and I don’t see Apple focusing on that at any point, tbh.
Eh, it makes sense for Steam share, this data is entirely gaming users. It would be a mistake to try to relate this to overall market share though.
