Top 10 played games on steam :¹

So 3/10, and 2 of them are made by valve with an explicit orientation toward Linux. Because I'm unemployed, I computed playtime of those games²:
-
- Counter-Strike 2 : 36,07 %
-
- Dota 2 : 21,54 %
-
- Battlefield™ 6 : 10,46 %
-
- ARC Raiders : 8,16 %
-
- PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS : 6,78 %
-
- Path of Exile : 4,08 %
-
- Rust : 3,93 %
-
- Banana : 3,24 %
-
- R.E.P.O. : 3,08 %
-
- Bongo cat : 2,67 %
Tbf, I didn't expect that Linux Games represent ~ 50% of playtime of the top 10. This quite impressive, and it does underline an interesting trend. However, I think a lot of people use their personal experience to other, with no regards for the social contexte. I got 3 different computers, I'm used to Linux, and I couldn't play to almost every games. Because I'm too poor to get the right hardware, because my friends do not play on compatible games, and gaming is a social experience. My point is not that we shall not make FOSS propaganda' my point is that software need to be produce regarding the need of the people in our diversity in order to make FOSS mainstream. Everybody is not in IT, in the US with a engineer wages.
