This article is kinda misleading. Nearly 40% of Linux devices is the Steam Deck which is AMD only. Subtracting the Steam Deck AMD usage on Linux more or less matches that on Windows.
See the Steam hardware survey for the numbers that this blog spam article is reporting on: https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/?platform=linux
Yeah, there really isn’t any reason to go with one processor brand over the other. Since drivers and such aren’t a concern (like with GPUs) most people just pick whichever one has the most price-effective offering in the spec range they’re looking for.
Intel dropped the ball completely, and it will take years to catch up, if they ever do again. Could be a very long time.
If you believe they will become market leader again, buy stocks now. They are dirt cheap and could double or triple the money in maybe 3 to 5 years if they somehow come back from this.
Steam Deck is probably responsible for this.
Yup, 40% of that AMD share is the Steam Deck.
It means that the number of Linux users have almost doubled thanks to the Deck.
@ghariksforge @Gecko No one supports Win 10/11 telemetry and updates. And also, there are a huge rejection to win 11 from 10 users.
