I also had doubts but there are statistics (arguably not representative) that seem to confirm this: https://pkgstats.archlinux.de/fun https://pkgstats.archlinux

It might be machine learning stuff which heavily leans into nvidia hardware
- vetinari 5y agoJust adding them all goes way beyond 100%, so it really is not the best idea. In general, the market share (as in GPUs sold, in total, for all systems, not just Linux) was around 70% Intel, 17% Nvidia and 13% AMD. This was before GPUs turned into inobtaniums, so I guess Nvidia and AMD didn't improve their positions much. Yes, there are ML guys on the Linux side, but that could be compensated by gamers on the Windows side, so I assume that if anything, Windows would have more share of Nvidia than Linux. Miners don't really care for desktop. There is a place where Nvidia achieved significant share - it has 70% in Steam hardware survey. That is to be expected, gamers are heavily biased towards Nvidia.
