I don't know if the rumor is true, but apparently some famous game developer stated that MS will try to break Steam through patches in the future in order to make people turn to MS only for gaming. So keeping a separate strategy with Linux might just be a good thing. Let's see how the thing with Linux/OpenGL/Vulkan developes in the future...
The June Steam survey put the Linux usage at 0.52%.
The all time high for Linux is close to 1% back in 2016.
Many of these people may be running Linux on their desktop in dual boot but use Windows for gaming.
I expect the Linux market share to rise in the coming years because many AAA games are being ported to Linux currently. Also many people are having tons of frustrations with Windows, it breaks after every major update and tons of unwanted "features" and apps are being pushed on them.

Very good point! And which are those AAA games that are being ported to Linux? I thought the tendency was the other way round, every time less Linux ports. I am saying this because e.g. iD Soft used to publish Linux installers for most of their old games, but since it was sold this practice was dropped. Rage (one of the best games to me) was the first game without a Linux installer. Thank God it ran well with wine... What I really miss is an overview or announcements in general about commercial games being ported to Linux or even published with a Linux installer right from the start.
It's far from all AAA games but it's a start. If the latest Call of Duty or Battlefield would be added to this list that would be a huge buff for gaming on Linux.
Keep an eye on Feral Interactive (They have a Youtube Channel where they post trailers), they are one of the few Linux porting companies and they are very close with the community. They developed some nice tools such as GameMode as well.
Is not that bad. What I tried to say before is that many of the Windows accounts usually are account that doesn't generate profit due that are bot accounts, trading card mining accounts or freemium accounts. I cannot give numbers, but I think that average investement of Linux accounts is bigger than the Windows ones, which give us (Linux user) some hope and some explanation of why we still gets game in our platform.
From my point of view, it's not the number of accounts but market size (i.e. the money) what matters.
But yeah you are correct. I would guess that the vast majority of Linux users are adults who are able to stick tons of money in Steam. Let's say 9/10 Linux gamers are regular customers while on Windows it might be closer to 3/10.
I'm still a windows user, but would love to switch to linux full time.
I have been using Linux on all my servers, so I am experienced but as a Desktop it should do everything.
Now with the new Steam Proton layer it looks interesting to switch.
Been trying out DeepinOS and FreeBSD and allthough I love FreeBSD (running Gnome) and actually prefer it over Linux. Deepin OS is pretty sleek and that would be my choice.
But I'm still going to wait till Proton is matured.
Deepin 15.8 is looking really nice also. I might switch back to Deepin from GNOME for a while to check it out.
I partially switched to Linux 6 months ago and fully switched 4 months ago. I have been doing all my gaming on Linux since then. The release of Proton more then doubled the size of my game library.
indeed
with most of its source available, it _should_ be possible to build proton for any platform _already_ supported by wine itself
