    The whole of those 2% are on Lemmy.

    How do I know? Because they really like to tell you about it.

        If they’re anything like vegans, they’ll make FOSS a topic as unpopular as vegans made animal rights.

            Look at the reality of what has happened to animal rights progress after the animal rights movement was effectively replaced.

            It has flatlined entirely.

        I’m all for competition in the market and knew enough to be able to fix any problems I ran into on windows, but linux is a whole different beast. It’s the first intel product I’ve bought since my first CPU in 2012

          I’d definitely ditch the OS before the hardware, but it’s your PC and I’m not usually a good guru for this stuff either way.

      I was tempted by Arc. Intel drivers always “just worked”, but they are just slow. Arc didn’t address the problem like I’d hoped, and AMD really got their shit together in the last 5 years or so.

      Yup, that’s how niche the Steam Deck is at the moment. It’s ~37% of 2% of all Steam users.

      Then again the user numbers on Steam are insane. Would be nice to compare it per region.

    I switched to linux because windows 10 is going end-of-life, and I can’t upgrade to windows 11 even if I wanted to.

    It’s been fine, other than some trouble getting mint to dual boot the first time.
