2.3 percentage points of growth is not all that small when talking about steam's user base I think. and his point about acceleration is interesting, we might still be in the early phases of an s-curve.

personally though, as a 20-year Linux user I'm already gobsmacked by the number of new users and mainstream discussion around linux. if we never crack 5% that will already be more users than I ever thought Linux would get

Same boat, ~20-year user, really happy to see so much development around Linux. Great apps, environments, gaming, system light/dark mode, etc etc. Just enjoying the ride of it growing into a modern desktop.

My latest venture is Niri, which I think I'll stay with for a long while if everything progresses in the right direction (or stays unchanged, it's already great).
