That would only make sense if Apple would allow a Steam client on iOS.
- pjmlp 3y agoOn the contrary, if SteamOS usage from SteamDeck count as Linux Desktop, then so should Apple mobile devices. Additionally, if we are comparing the Linux gamer ecosystem to Apple, then also the Apple ecosystem should be taken into account.
- Novosell 3y agoBut apple mobile devices can't run steam? It'd make no sense to include them in a metric of steam usage.
- pjmlp 3y agoThe article is using Steam adoption numbers as gateway into Linux game market overall, so it is only appropriate that proper game market numbers are mentioned.
- blooalien 3y ago> "if SteamOS usage from SteamDeck count as Linux Desktop" SteamOS basically is a Linux Desktop. Steam Deck is just a hand-held form-factor PC with built-in Steam Controller, and SteamOS is basically just Valve's custom Arch Linux with KDE Plasma desktop and Steam "Big Picture" mode as "desktop" environments. > "then so should Apple mobile devices." No, they shouldn't, because Apple mobile devices don't run Linux, nor Steam.
- pjmlp 3y agoYes they should, as in reality they are comparing Linux to Apple.
- wiseowise 3y agoMobile gaming is complete trash.
- wkat4242 3y agoMaybe soon though, considering the EU is about to force Apple to allow third party app stores.
