    Not sure if I’m doing the math right, but Linux % for English Language users is 11.28%!

    Math: (Linux English / Overall English) * Linux Overall = (82.75% / 39.09%) * 5.33% = 11.28%

    Edit: Changed “?” to “!” after GamingOnLinux, via Tywèle@piefed.social, confirmed my math.

        Appreciate the confirmation. I actually checked GamingOnLinux before doing the math, but they hadn’t updated their graphs yet for March.

        Since I did the math correct the first time, I’m going to double down and math again!

        Non-Steam Deck Linux % for English Language: 8.63%

        Math: (Linux English / Overall English) * ((Linux Overall - SteamOS Linux % of Overall) / (Overall - SteamOS Linux % of Overall) = (82.75% / 39.09%) * ((5.33% - 1.30%) / (100% - 1.30%)) = 8.63%

        SteamOS Linux % of Overall = Linux Overall * SteamOS Linux = 5.33% * 24.48% = 1.30%

        Assumptions: % of English Language usage is uniform across all Distros; Probably another assumption, but it’s not coming to me right now.

      you have to use 0.8275 * 0.0533 * 100 = 4,41% I think. You cannot multiply/divide percents like that, if you think 50% of 50%, half of a half of 100 is 25
