Sometimes comments seem to reflect the desires of the commenters rather than an accurate reflection of reality. "Gamers are starting to leave for Linux and Proton" is an example of this because it is obviously the wish of the commenter and contrary to what is happening in the real world.

Fair. I definitely did not acknowledge my own bias. There are numbers showing the growth of Linux in both gaming and general. The steam deck alone is showing many people, including hardware manufacturers, the power of linux. That is directly pushing and growing the portable gaming market, which takes market share away from Windows. This will continue to grow, and I believe negative sentiment towards the bloated experience the vast majority of users are getting with Windows is also growing. Hence the "(slowly) dying", which was meant to be a bit tongue and cheek. I have only anecdotal evidence as far as I have seen quite a few articles about various "features" in the last month, but again within posts from my slice of the internet. One such article was about system popups basically begging you to use Edge, another this change to the keyboard, and one about ads/sponsored links all over the OS.

Obviously Windows still have a massive market share. Never said it didn't. I just like to believe there's some cracks showing in the armor.

The "slowly" in parenthesis and "I feel" in my final line of my original post, did not acknowledge the slice of the internet I generally consume content from, which absolutely does have some collective bias against windows.
