When chinese language drops, Linux “grow”; but that growth seems to fall back whenever Chinese language return on top… sometime over the overall English language (temporarily making English a secondary language).
There’s a constant Linux growth on Steam? Yes, but Chinese language introduce some noise (I doubt publishers are willing to make English language a secondary concern, under Chinese, after reading Steam HWs).
PS: nothing against chinese people, this is all about statistical noise: people jumping on their chair before checking the whole thing.
that might be what OP is saying, since English users outnumber every other european language, since most people in western countries/regions that are non-english speaking set their steam to english (I would know, all my (francophone) friends do that).
But realistically most other languages have linux usage not dissimilar to english, and china stands out by being very different and a huge percentage of the total users. So that’s what they’re saying.
Idk man
