If that was the argument, Windows would by definition below it in the survey anyway,
Let me rephrase: After months of constant nagging by Linux users, Windowsers briefly tried it and found that their personal needs aren’t well met by either OS.
Who's nagging? I promise you nobody gives a fuck what OS you use on your computer.
I promise you that quite a few people do, and they all use Linux. Source: My actual life.
I think you're the one who keeps thinking about what your friends recommended. They simply gave you an option and moved on. you on the other hand seem to have devolved into a crusade against an alternative choice in running your own OS.
Maybe? But in reality the stat changes are to do with an influx of Chinese players that happens every year around this time. The vast majority of Chinese players use Windows.
Also I had a friend try Linux, and while it isnt all sunshine and rainbows (and he is about the furthest from an IT guy i can think it), he gets a solid 40+ FPS more than Windows 10. I am not forcing him to use, he just defaults to it now because shit is way smoother, and the alternative is using W11 which can legit brick your SSD (not worth it in this economy).
Also, I really don't understand being attached to software or developing a personality around it. If Linux doesnt serve my needs I'll simple use FreeBSD (or HardenedBSD). If that doesn't work, I hope by that point RedoxOS is mature. Etc for any software.
