Does Archlinux include SteamOS? Why isn't SteamOS not listed, but several versions of Ubuntu is listed separately? Wasn't SteamOS making up about half the Steam users using Linux? I would like to see multiple ways and options to enable and disable for Linux grouping, and longer lists. It may be enough for MacOS or Windows, but not for Linux.
Arch Linux includes SteamOS
Where is this stated?? If that was the case, the difference to other distros would be much higher. SteamOS is usually listed separately as HoloISO: https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/?platform=linux
Since it separates Manjaro I'd assume it also does it for other Arch based distros with their own branding like Endeavour or Artix?
I know it used to, but it must have changed since I remember. Didn't see Holo when I looked at the survey this morning either, I guess that's what I get for commenting before I have coffee
It only shows up when you use the dropdown menu to filter for Linux only. Then you also will see Freedesktop SDK (Flatpak). For whatever reason Flatpak and SteamOS Holo are ignored if you look at all operating systems instead Linux only. If you compare the numbers, they are not added to Archlinux or anything else.
