So how do you want to grow Linux market share if you say FU to a significant part of the potential market? Steam hardware survey is pretty clear about AMD:Nvidia GPU ratio.

Steam is a pretty niche userbase and not at all representative of the desktop market at large.

I don't think so - I see nobody with a desktop computer these days except gamers or people running CAD or modelling who are basically doing the same thing as running a game.

And all people using a computer for work...

The same can be said about Linux desktop share. Should we draw the same conclusions?

Except gaming is not that "niche":

1.35 billion PCs worldwide - https://www.statista.com/statistics/610271/worldwide-persona...

47M active daily and 90M monthly users for steam https://www.pcgamer.com/steam-now-has-90-million-monthly-use...

(For gamers.)
