I'm sure some it's just limited time etc... i do agree with the gist of it though, wouldn't be the worse idea for creators to just crosspost everything they upload to tiktok or youtube shorts to loops as well, but I guess it's more just out of their field of view to begin with anyway. Problem I suppose is, a second part of the linux/windows problem we ran into.
not only are there less users on linux, but the overwhelming majority of them, at the bare minimum have a windows machine or a dual boot system to run software they really need or want to run windows things if they need to. Likewise even people dabbling in loops, still view youtube shorts and tiktok. Meaning they don't even count as additional users.
