Actually a bit surprising. I'd think emulator nerds would be using Linux at significantly higher rates than normal and I think 10% is the latest (optimistic) general adoption rate.

Maybe Linux users turn off telemetry?

~~I assume this is largely based off of downloads instead of in-program telemetry~~

Maybe I should rtfa.

It's based off API update checks. Not telemetry or downloads. It makes sense tho, more windows machines means more windows downloads.

I think most users don't even know/care about this.

A quick search for "how to play this PS3 Game on pc", a click on the first YouTube video and that's it.

Shit, just linux.

Use this community for anything related to linux for now, if it gets too huge maybe there will be some sort of meme/gaming/shitpost spinoff. Currently though… go nuts
