The Steam data is pretty noisy. We got a big spike two months ago and now the anomaly went away. The import part is to pay attention to the trend, something that is quite the oppose of “falls hard”:
I’ll get a steam frame even at the inflated prices… It runs linux, seems quite open, and it not made by facebook. I’m already sold on just that.
I also fear though it’ll sell out almost immediately 🙁
It’s percentages, with English speakers using Linux at 2x the rate of the world average. The world average is mostly drug down down by China, which has almost 0% Linux use.

Thats a positive trend and we still have the Steam Machine ahead of us. The writing is on the wall.
Which comes at the worst possible time price wise 🥺 damn AI bubble
It still sold out 🙂
What sold out?
Woops, the Steam Deck sold out. I bet the Steam Machine will to.
And I predict the Steam Frame will sell out as well. Unless they implement some unprecedented preorder system or something.
You had me shitting bricks. I’ll be damned if I don’t get my hands on a Gabe Cube and Gabe Goggles.

Yeah it’s the toe of a sigmoid curve. We’re entering the early adopter phase roughly.
Great observation!
The anomaly itself even looks periodical and March related.
But the trend goes brrrr!
Why is english-only higher than the sum?

Some of that gets more apparent when you see all the different graphs here: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/steam-tracker/
