    0.3% change on the steam survey is not a “dip” it’s a blip.

        It’s the steam survey, it’s rough as guts. Why would anyone even post this ‘result’ let alone try to market it as ‘oh no linux is dying fam bro lol’

        It’s 0.3%

          Again - it’s 10% of the total Linux amount. It’s a lot.

          The article isn’t saying Linux is dying, neither am I. Who is?

            Steam result vary more than 0.3% just by user select variance. Very unstable.

            0.3% over multiple month maybe around 10% of linux, but not for one month.

        In sampling and statistics, I’m pretty sure there are terms for that. To account for the fact that not 100% of the population are being sampled. Hmmm, I wonder what that term is.
