The monthly statistics are out from Valve and the Steam Survey shows the Steam Linux marketshare for the month at 0.41%, or an increase of +0.15%. It’s quite an increase for Linux but for January macOS reported a 0.42% increase (1.84% overall) while Windows still dominates with a 97.76% marketshare.
