Would a significant portion of steamdeck users browse the Internet from it though? I found browsing too cumbersome on mine and in every case it was easier to just pull my phone out and surf that way.
I’m pretty sure it’s the same as eastern europe, where literally no one bought Windows ever and just pirated, so sanctions do nothing
I’m from Ukraine and I don’t think I’ve ever heard of anyone buying Windows like… ever, I guess if it’s preinstalled on laptops, but many of them were sold without OS for that reason

I have never seen a single steam deck user around. Plus I doubt It affects the 80 million population.
I’ve seen a couple on trains, along with myself.
