      Gotcha, thanks for clarifying. I definitely recognize that gaming isn’t 100% perfect on Linux yet, and graphics drivers can still be a pain. I think both of those statements hold true on Windows though, and I don’t think I’d consider a gamer an “average” PC user. PC gaming is a niche hobby. A large niche maybe, but it’s not the main thing people use a PC for. So I think it’s a little unfair to point to gaming-related issues when trying to claim that Linux isn’t user-friendly.

          Same survey:

          71% play on smartphones or tablets (vs 68% in 2023) 59% play on consoles (vs 56% in 2023) 43% play on PC (vs 46% in 2023)

          I know there’s overlap, people who play multiple devices, but even with that, 43% is smaller than the other numbers
