No, you’re being dishonest. 99% of Steam Deck users don’t know (or care) that desktop mode exists because, much like an appliance, it’s not relevant to their use of the device. Your argument is basically that, if a refrigerator had a full Linux desktop that was accessible, it’s user would count as a Linux user because, just like the Steam Deck, not using that interface would just be the owner of said refrigerator “choosing not to engage with it”. You and I both know that’s horseshit.
No, I would not.
still counts as them using linux surely
You’ve just contradicted yourself. A smart fridge with a browser counts as a Linux user or doesn’t?

work on your reading comprehension.
Sure…right after you answer the question instead of continuing to be dishonest.
You can’t have it both ways.
