Are they counting Steamdecks?

Or what is the scope?

They count based on useragent info from accesses to websites using statcounter analytics.

Unless they track Steam Deck specific fingerprints the OS may be classified as Arch, but either way: yes, every Steam Deck counts as a Linux system out of the box.

Yup! Just installed it on my laptop after several tries running into bugs during install. My desktop is next, but I'm not ready for the headaches of figuring out a dual-boot yet. I'm mentally preparing for it, though, so fingers crossed.

So I might as well ask beforehand: Does anyone have a preferred tutorial for it? I prefer a recommendation to going in blind.
