I guess competing is correct, but I don’t see it overtaking steamOS any time soon or even coming close since the steamdeck is an actual product marketed by a for-profit company.

I feel like it may not overtake KDE, from the graphs the trend seems to somewhat be following there too recently. Like a bump in number of downloads because of popularity, but not a linear trend. Does that even make sense?

When people comment about having issues with Linux, this is what that should be compared with.

Or not, since linux distros ideally shouldn’t be bound to windows. (but realistically they are)
