Steam On Linux Percentage Receded A Bit Further In September

The Steam on Linux 0.05% decline comes while macOS dropped by 0.01% while Windows picked up the 0.06%.

AMD CPUs continue to power more than 70% of the Linux gaming systems, in large part due to the Steam Deck being powered by a custom AMD APU.
