Our newest question about your primary gamepads/controllers has grown quite a bit over last month, with 231 more people answering the question compared to last month. With 502 total people answering that question now, the Steam Controller has the top share at 36% which is quite impressive.

Ubuntu and its spin-offs still remain king over all other distributions too, with them together taking a sweet 50.29%.

This is the most fun to see:

Out of 1263 people, only 2 are on 32bit.

Note: I noticed the graph numbers are getting cramped at higher levels of people, so I will be adjusting that to shorten it to "1k, 1.2K" or something like that.

It's also nice to see a healthy 68.24% of people do not dual-boot, which surprised me, but that's a damn healthy number to see.

You can view the full Linux gamer statistics at any time here.

If you have any feature suggestions, do let me know and I can add them to the list. I am focusing on a few other things before I get back to adjusting it some more.

I am still working out the best length of time to have data drop-off when it becomes stale. We do log the time and date people last updated their information, so it's easy to do when I think of a good time period for it.

I will also be working on an automatic reminder, that will appear on the site to ask you to update your details or to click if nothing has changed. That way, it will help with old data and keep it in your minds. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Quoting: ShmerlRegarding Steam controller, what happened to this project? https://gitlab.com/dennis-hamester/scd
It seems to be stalled.
Well, to be honest https://github.com/kozec/sc-controller that does what that wanted to and a whole lot more. So there isn't a need for it.
