>Steam Hardware Survey January 2026 - RTX 5070 reached top 5 ranking at 2.87% | RX 9070 Non XT finally shows up at 0.16% | Linux OS lost some market sharelol devs are making games for 3% of the gaming population.
>>732208106>Linux OS lost some market shareAstonishing given how ass 11 is.
>>732208363It fluctuates all the time, the trend is very slow growth
>a free os lives so rent free in retards heads they have to celebrate it losing its already low numbers>>>/g/ is that way. Jannies need to start banning this shit because operating systems aren't gaming
>>732209072Linux fans are extremely obnoxious so everyone hates them. They want people to abandon Windows but rather than improving Linux to the point where you don't need to spend 25-30 hours working on a single issue they just shit on people for not wanting to spend 25-30 hours working on a single issue.
>>732209072
>>732208106My beloved rx 6600
>>732209389>linux fans are obnoxious>so winjeet makes a thread seething and being obnoxiousYeah checks out

>>732211923and yet the only jab in the op is at linuxyou're illiterate
>>732212203>thinks there was a jabbro if you think there was a jab that means you are an ultra sensitive pussy and you deserve to be made fun ofLMAO LINUX FAGS LOSING MARKET SHARE HAHAHA FUCKING LOSERS AND THEIR SHIT OS HAHAHAHAHAH LMAOI BET YOU ARE UPSET YOU FUCKING PISSY EYED BITCH

>>732212306>reddit spacingGo back retard
>>732212306alright then microjeet, you think having marketshare is going to prevent jeetdows from going down in flames as its remaining foundations are replaced with garbage?
>>732208106>OH NO NO NO LINUXBROS THEY ARE LAUGHING AT US
>>732208106as a sensitive linux user I feel personally attacked by the OP and it makes me upset
lmao linux losers on suicide watch
>>732212416why do you post this in every thread? do you think anyone actually cares?
>>732213097what's the matter? skin too thin to handle that you're on a dying os?
lmao laugh at the linux losers nobody is ever going to switch gyahahahahaha hahah faggots
>>732213384nothing the matter? I just think you're a retard for posting it like everyone will suddenly shit themselves and troonout on linux
>>732208742>Third worlders bringing the percentage down every time
>>732208106Better rev up those cloud gaming subs lads
>>732213565i believe you should be constantly reminded of your placeyou're choosing to stay on the sinking ship because you're too brown to learn how to swimremember that
>>732208106>lol devs are making games for 3% of the gaming population.Nah, modern games work fine on older GPUs, you just need some upscaling.But if you've have enough money to burn for a modern high end GPU (or you're a consolefag), you get to still using fucking upscaling.
>>732213764>turn PC onit works>click explorercan browse interweb>click steam gamegame runs great>switch PC offPC turns offtell me retard, what the fuck would switching to linux bring?
>>732213823>game runs great
>>732213823yeah, until w11 uninstalls notepad and snipping tool, doesn't close task manager instances, bricks your ssd and many other issues brought to you by head pajeet and his massive army of h1bsimagine admitting you're so retarded that your pc is just a big phone to you
>>732213905What games don't run great?
>>732213931>until a big load of stuff I made up in my head happens then you'll be sorry you're a fucking retard
>>732213572indians are the ones using linux anon

>>732214191no, they're notless than 1 in 10 of 4.4 average member households own a pc and their steam traffic contribution is less than 1%

>>732214207if you have a vega 56 or better there is no reason to upgradethere is no noticeable difference between low and ultra settings in modern games
>>732209072moot was in cohoots with literal jew/mossad puppetmasterspsyops against good things is nothing new here, goyim are just being told to stick with what is good for them
>>732208106Is gaming finally going to crash? Simple components that used to cost $100 now cost $1000. No one is building new PCs
>>732214378oh look. they're both workinglol silly troon
>>732213823>PC turns offThey patched that issue where it didn't?
>>732214731>people don't die because i'm alivestunning level of eloquence from winjeetsthe point is that windows 11 is a far cry from 7 and it will only get worse as all the remaining code is replaced by ai jeets shitting out rust translationssinking ship brownoid, tick tock
>>732214947You've just posted that notepad and snipertool aren't working. I've shown you that they are working. So tell me what is it that cutting my cock off, wearing a frock and switching to linux will bring?
>>732208106>pandering to 0.03% of human population (troons) is le good>pandering to 3% of people who got tired of AIslop is le badkill yourself OP

>>732215210stop skipping the question. what would I gain from switching to linux?
>>732215274In your case you'd gain the dignity of not running defense for a trillion dollar corporation for free.
>>732215274independence and ownership of your own computeryou have to muzzle and fight your operating system for it to stay functionalbut then again you're a shit eating troonjeet that didn't use windows when it was actually good so you don't have a point of reference
>>732215336>"you should switch to linux">why?>"I don't know. I'm just a fucking mental troon who wants everyone to be a mental troon too"I think I'll pass
>>732208106>devs are making games for 3% of the gaming population.20,000 games released on Steam last year, 99.999% of them run on a 20 year old toaster. What even is this thread
>>732214000Lmaooo
>>732215402>I've used windows longer than you so I winthat's your argument is it? What benefit would I get from switching to linux?
>>732215420I didn't say you should switch to Linux, I said that you'd gain dignity if you did.
>>732214191India contributes to Steam traffic less than fucking Finland
>>732215614yes, my argument is that your standards for an operating system are so low you just take the abuse like the little slave you arereminder that you own your jeetdows pc so little you can't even move your fucking taskbar
>>732215627so there's no benefit to it. got it. You can fuck off now
>>732215682You're certainly selling it to me. Being able to move a taskbar has been my main priority for decades.
>>732215765i don't have to sell it to youjeetdows will only get worse and then you'll come crying and then you'll bash yourself for being a contrarian and not leaving sooner
>>732215860You come across as really desperate to get people to try linux. >but you can move your task barholy shit really !!! I'm so fucking excited, I should just wipe off a perfectly working windows installation and jump to a whole new OS, which may or may not work , just to leave the fucking taskbar exactly where it is
>>732215720If you're ok being a marketer for free, then own up to it instead of seething about it impotently like this. There's no reason for you to seethe at me.
>>732216053Nobody has told you to use windows you dumb fuck
>>732215438This.Why upgrade my GTX 1070 when any game I play on 1080p works fine?I could upgrade the GPU, to make games run faster, but hell no I won't upgrade my monitor if it still works.
>>732215985you come across as a desperate microjeet shill trying to hold people down on jeetdows but you have nothing to praise it for so you have to play dumb by repeating works on my machine over and over and overcomputers have been around for more than 5 years you bootlicking alphoomer, things used to be better, you don't have to defend microjeet
>>732216157>repeating works on my machine over and over and overIt does work on my machine. Maybe you're just a fucking retard who struggles with basic OS usage.
>>732216121I never said anyone told me to use Windows, I said that your seething at me is unwarranted. You're still seething.
>>732216257So why am I a shill if nobody is telling you to use something?
>>732216318People who have used Windows for more than 30 years are not the target audience of shills.
>>732216212why are you in this thread if you think you can influence others to stay on windows by repeating that your experience is fine?why should your experience be trusted if you're defending 11 and clearly have no experience of what windows used to be? did you use a debloat script? either you did and you have no right to say it just works or you didn't and you're a corporate golem
>>732216406I'm asking why I should switch to linix and the best answer I got was a fucking taskbar lol
>>732216382OMG you used windows for 30 years and you still can't figure it out? You must be another AMD retard.
>>732216458a taskbar is an example of how little you own, among other things like not being able to defer an update, needing a microsoft account and having to do arcane shit to get the illusion of controlyou're humiliating yourself either wayfunny how you didn't answer any of my questions
>>732216550>b-b-but other thingsname them
>another winjeet seethe threadkinda sad imo
>>732216527What are you seething about now? I have forgotten more about Windows than you'll ever know. I have no trouble figuring it out.
>>732216725>I've used windows for 30 years and forgot most of itI can tell
I use Linux myself but this thread is pretty bad for not talking about the real elephant in the room that devs are making games for top of the line cards when only 3% of the steam market is using it.I don't understand why OP inserted the Linux thing at the end, but it genuinely sucks that the real gold mine isn't being discussed.
>>732208363Normies still cant deal with the power of Tux
>>732216753You're really illiterate aren't you? I recommend hitting up some language classes for English.
>>732216915>switch to troonix>why >because I have used windows for 30 years and say so fucking retard
>>732216590i named themyou're not in control of update cadence and you have to use a microsoft account, you need to trust third party scripts for your os to not be completely compromisedfunny how you can't defend windows as you dodge the questions i asked
>>732208106I have a 4060 and I upgraded from a 750ti.I miss the driver stability my 750ti had.Today the dead space remake crashed to desktop.Spiderman 2 got stuck in a fight last week.I can't remember 1 month without at least one crash.Hell I don't know if I had one finished game without some kind of glitch.
>>732216975Read this. >>732215627Are you a chat GPT based NPC with no memory for previously occurred conversation?
>>732217018>you're not in control of update cadence and you have to use a microsoft account,I switch it to update as soon as available. Why would I not want to update?>you need to trust third party scripts for your os to not be completely compromisedok. Never had an issue. So who gives a fuck?>funny how you can't defend windows as you dodge the questions i askedI'm not switching to linux because you can list a couple of retarded things which have no impact on anything I do
>>732208106http://twitch.tv/xrdmain
>>732217153alright then, with this one response you've completely destroyed your credibilityfunny how you're such a fucking bootlicker after all the tranny accusations you've thrown at mei guess modern winjeets really have no standards
>>732216793>don't understand why OP inserted the Linux thing at the end,Simple bait to get (you)s.
>>732216793because sensitive linux losers would cry.
>>732217510>tranny can't think of any reason to switch other than "microsoft is bad ok"
>>732217806"This shit that I'm eating tastes bad" seems like a pretty valid reason not to eat it.
>>732217806i can't think of any reason to stay on windows except being so illiterate that you can't stomach learning a new desktop environmentpretty sad that that's all your windows "experience" amounts toyou're choosing your "experience" with a jeet operating system over your freedom
>rtx 4060 laptop that highdo people really buy gaming laptops? I thought those were a meme and universally discouraged, is the steam survey system drunk?
>>732219569Gaming laptops are likely to be fairly common among pre-built enjoyers (most people), because desktop prebuilts are really shitty.
>>732209389This
>swap to linux the other day>refused to participate in hardware survey on winblows>participate once I'm swapped over
>>732216127Better gpu makes the old games look better and run better too. Better AA, higher resolution. 1080p is literally third world bullshit from almost 2 decades ago.
>>732221127but most people still play 720p (on PS4™ upscaled to 1080p) (AI™ upscaled again to 4k on an OLED tv)
wtf, 5070 being that high is kinda crazy
>>732221127Still working.
>>732221437desu most of PS4 games were actually native 1080p
>>732209389You can install Bazzite and be playing games in 30 minutes. Literally the first thing it presents after you sign in for the first time is Steam's login window. The biggest barrier to playing games is the time it takes to download them.
>>732226119>biggest barrier to playing games is the time it takes to downloadnot even, you can copy your steam library folder from windows and paste it right into your bazzite partition or ssd.i have my entire steam library downloaded to an external hdd so all I did was copy/paste the games I wanted, refreshed the library/did some check within steam and I was good to go.
>>732227883How about dual booting, in case I want to use both Linux and Windows?I heard that Proton is not compatible with NTFS, so I would have to move everything to one of partitions compatible with both. Which one would be the best one?
>>732229386ntfs is just a shit file systemmove over as much as you can to linux and leave windows for edge cases
Haters are the biggest fans.
>>732229386Proton works fine with NTFS. It's just a filesystem. What doesn't work is ping ponging NTFS between Windows and Linux. If you mount it only on Linux, you can survive, but if you also mount it on Windows you'll be dealing with "failed to mount" a lot.
