I think it's less likely that people migrated OS, especially in that amount, rather that people stopped using their steamdecks.
Yeap I don't think that is the reason... just they installed Windows in their Deck.
BTW I checked a bit more data I don't know if useful.
BASED ON MARCH 2023 SURVEY
21.22% of Linux users (0.84% of all Steam users) are using Steam Deck.
Less than 0.15% of Windows users (97.75% of all Steam users) are using Steam Deck.
Overall 0.18% of all Steam users are using Steam Deck.
Sadly I can't get the exact % of Steam Deck with Windows because it go out of the lower range that is 0.15%.
PS. You can check Steam Deck hardware by the GPU "AMD AMD Custom GPU 0405".
21.22% of 0.84% is 0.176% so the number of windows users is 0.18%-0.176% = 0.004% or 2% of steamdeck users are using windows. If you want to make the most generous estimate, (0.1849%-0.1755%)/(0.1849%) = 5% of steamdeck users are using windows.
Makes a lot of sense. Despite everything going against it and how new it is, people already prefer to stick to SteamOS over installing Windows.
0.18% of all Steam users are using Steam Deck?
So ~2.16M Steam Decks
What percentage of Steam users actually buy games at full price?
Not for this game, but for Capcom PC is around half of their company's worldwide game sales.
probably true of most games tbf... but there's a reason that steam sales used to be legendary (even if they've become pedestrian af the last few years)
Well, obviously sales depends on the game and also if the game/series/company is more popular in console or in PC.
In addition to this, we have to consider that the publisher (or dev if selfpublished) sees somewhere between 40-50% of what the player pays for a game and that games usually get discounted more frequently and more aggresively on Steam, and that around half or more of the Steam copies sold are discounting. Meaning, a game may have many units sold but in many cases they see little money from each one.
It was weird to see people talk about MS hype and how genial there were shifting wafers from Series X to Series S production.
And I locked at sales data and PS5 was always beating them being heavy supply coinstrained.
Reading Xbox fans post you had the impression that Series production was higher than PS5
