Again, only one data point but you basically just described me exactly

Sure, but you're an outlier. All of us in this conversation are massive outliers. I mean, we're on Fedi alternatives to Reddit, for one. We're talking in a Linux Gaming subreddit of a niche derivative of Reddit.

It's not like we don't have numbers. We're the 0.8% of the market that has a Steam Deck, and from that you're part of the 0.4% of it that also migrated another computer for one reason or another. And that's out of Steam, which has about as many users, give or take, as the Nintendo Switch, not orders of magnitude more. We're a fraction of a fraction of a fraction.
