Unfortunately not all the news is good for Linux users, this time we must recognize that Microsoft Windows 10 is becoming the undisputed king of Steam, being the most used operating system and growing in number of users with it. On the contrary, GNU / Linux continues to fall, quite bad news after the progress that has been made in the field of video games for the Tux platform ...
Their numbers should grow so that companies develop more titles for Linux instead, and despite the enormous growth of the number of videogames for Linux, our platform continues to fall against the intractable Windows 10. It seems that Windows 10 is overtaking its harder predecessor, Windows 7, since 8 and 8.1 have not reached the figures of 7. But that is good news for users of the Microsoft system, what really worries me is the decrease of Linux on Steam.
The figures speak for themselves, Windows 10 already has a percentage of users higher than 39.68% on Steam for the 64-bit version. Windows 7 is around 32.25%, therefore it also begins to fall due to the update to the new system that many are doing, since a few months ago they were more or less tied at 34%. When it comes to gamers, Windows dominates by far, with one 95.42%, leaving the rest of the percentage for Mac OS X and Linux.
The worst thing is that this figure is growing and strangling the narrow percentage that the operating system of Apple and the one with the penguin. Something worrisome for gamers who have a Linux computer. It is known to all that Windows has always been the "toy" operating system, but the good news of the growth of titles on Steam seemed that they would change this (although not overnight), although it has not been like that . At least for now, but we have to fight to reverse this.
