You've omitted the Linux numbers.

Yes, since this is a Mac forum. Your point? You can follow the link and see the Linux user base is unchanged at 1.38%, almost half the size of Mac gamers.

Considering you've mentioned Windows, it would only be fair to mention Linux as well.

Fair? Haha, it's gaming stats, not a life issue. You guys talk as if it's about social injustice and always find a reason to complain on Mac forums, even about such simple things.

Why would I mention something in my post/thread that I'm not interested in? It's not as if I tried to hide something. I gave you a link too. Interested in Linux on a Mac forum? Follow the link instead of nitpicking.

The only reason I included Windows is because people in general like to compare it to Mac. You're all welcome to explain why Linux numbers are so important to you in this thread on a Mac forum that the lack of them irritates you. Otherwise go and visit Linux forums.

Linux stats for the bellyachers:
Linux: 1.38% 0.00%
Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS 64 bit: 0.16% +0.01%
"Arch Linux" 64 bit: 0.13% 0.00%
"Manjaro Linux" 64 bit: 0.09% 0.00%
Linux Mint 21.1 64 bit: 0.05% +0.05%

Still not the year of the Linux Desktop guys :(

I think he was hoping that Linux would overtake Mac share. Sad.

Yeah, I even posted the Linux stats before his post.

I think this means that there are more people using arm64 CPUs on Steam than there are Linux users.

Microsoft XTA 0.03% of Windows users, which are 96.02% of Steam users, therefore 0.0288% using Microsoft XTA (i.e. Microsoft's x86-on-ARM emulation)

VirtualApple 52.31% of macOS users, which are 2.61% of Steam Users, therefore 1.3652% using VirtualApple (i.e. Rosetta, Apple's x64-on-ARM emulation)

1.3652 + 0.0288 = 1.394% using arm64.

Linux users are 1.38%.

A rather big increase for Apple Silicon on Steam in March.

Also a nice month for Windows:
Windows - 97.75% +1.73%
Mac OS - 1.41% -1.20%
Linux - 0.84% -0.54%
Not so much for Mac OS or Linux though.

Not unusal since the stats are based on the total number of players each month.
