minus-squaresamc@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up18·11 months agoI do wonder what percentage of Linux users reject the survey compared to Windows users. Not that it’s changed much, but every little helps right?
minus-squareflashgnash@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up12·11 months agoI’m not sure, on one hand Linux users are quite privacy oriented but on the other hand “I use arch btw”
minus-squareNéstor 🇵🇸@mastorol.eslinkfedilinkarrow-up3·11 months ago@flashgnash @samc As a linux steam player i answered this survey 2 times on the last ~15-20 years. And i did it then, because i wanted to feed steam’s efforts on linux as gaming platform.
minus-squarescutiger@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 months agoI rejectec it because I was busy with something else.
minus-squarecaesaravgvstvs@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·11 months agoI rejected it on my steam deck, on my aging windows computer and on my Linux laptop. I’m not going out of my way to give data to a private corporation (Even if it’s a kawaii “good for consumer” corporation)
minus-squareflashgnash@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 months agoFair enough, each try their own I don’t mind anonymous data going out that will serve to potentially improve my experience gaming on Linux The problem in my eyes is the non anonymous data that goes out that is used to design horrible addiction machines
minus-squarescutiger@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·11 months agoAt least a survey is them asking for information, not just quietly gathering it behind our backs.
minus-squarecaesaravgvstvs@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 months agoYeah, I’m not shitting on it and I’m grateful to the people who fill it out, I’m just lazy
minus-squareflashgnash@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·11 months agoYou know it’s not really an actual survey right? It can get all the info it needs on its own it just asks for permission
