In 2023, I had 97% Linux with the only Windows games being Skyrim and Fallout 4 because of modding.

Now that I got modding to work on Linux I resolved to have 100% playtime on Linux for 2024. But Steam Replay says nothing because its still only one device :(.

Gaben, throw us a bone here pls.

    I switched to Linux after the Recall junk, and one drive kept trying to sync my files when the PC was idle. (One drive was disabled!!!)

    It’s weird that the graph does not show my steam deck at all. I got it around launch, then got my wife one too. Now she runs Linux on her computer too.

      Welcome to Windows. Basically the entire operating system is malware at this point.

      Google photos on Android keeps syncing my images even when it was disabled. You can’t trust these guys.

    Don’t seek validation from corporations.

    I hate this cat meme. I think that cat has untreated eye infections.

      Mine says 99% Steam Deck and 1% Linux, which is weird considering they’re the same thing.

      But probably 50% was on my desktop, which also shows up as Steam Deck under Bazzite.

    Being able to mod Skyrim on Linux was the final nail in Window’s coffin for me too! Haven’t found a game that doesn’t work…even anti-cheat games like Elden Ring work flawlessly with Proton.

    Ooh, the secretest of achievements! So secret, even QA missed it!

    I’ll have to try for that in 2025. Gonna be wiping Windows over Christmas.

    Next year, play on a generic desktop Linux distribution as well as Steam Deck. They’ll show up as distinct platforms:

        There is expected to be an announcement at CES that Valve is partnering to bring other vendors into making SteamOS handhelds, so you likely will get your chance at something soon.

        I hate to say but you’re missing out. I wasn’t sure if it was for me in the beginning but according to steam I’ve done a third of my gaming this year on it

      Technically you could mod these games on Linux but it was a bit wonky. So I preferred to play these on Windows with MO2.

      Then I started using Steam Tinker Launch to setup and run MO2 on Linux and thus stopped using Windows.

      However STL does not seem to be getting updates these days so I now use this for modding Skyrim, Fallout, etc: https://github.com/rockerbacon/modorganizer2-linux-installer

      Edit: Nexus mods are also working on a cross-platform app for modding, though its still in alpha. Currently only a few games are supported with support for more coming soon.
