Much of the growth is likely from the sales of the steam deck.

Archive: https://archive.today/Mygkt

From the post: Back in February Steam on Linux was at a 1.45% marketshare, then was corrected to 2.33% for Linux gaming in March, 2.27% for April, a nice jump to 2.69% for Linux gaming in May, and June came in at 2.57% for the Linux gaming population as a percent of Steam users. The July numbers were published this evening and show a new recent high for Linux gamers.

Steam deck for sure, but also possible people are looking for other options with the upcoming end of Win10 support.

I also hear there are people putting the Steam OS on desktops. It isn't made for that but if you have a AMD processer and video card I read it will be stable.
