For January 2024, the reported Steam on Linux marketshare continued falling just short of the 2% threshold.
The Steam on Linux marketshare per Valve’s official survey put it at 1.97% for December after hitting 1.91% in November – continuing a slow upward trajectory seen in recent months thanks to the ongoing success of the Linux-powered SteamOS / Steam Deck.
There’s been an upward climb thanks as well to how great Steam Play has been working out for enjoying Windows games on Linux, aside from the outlier months where the Chinese marketshare happens to vastly impact the Steam Survey results overall.
When pulling up the Linux-specific data, SteamOS Holo climbed by 1.6% to 42.12% for being the most popular Linux distribution in use.
AMD CPUs power 70.5% of Linux gaming systems on Steam.

I can read what it says, but I still think the frequent use of an expression that includes the word fall is a bit idiotic in this particular context.
This is the best summary I could come up with:

You can count one more AMD Linux machine after I assemble mine this weekend!
