This is a silly take. People are less likely to say no on the phone than they are to click no on a survey opt-in popup. And I am not even sure that Steam does a pop-up, users may have to go find the option to join the survey.
So there absolutely is a sampling bias. How significant it is and how/if Valve attempt to control for it doesn't seem to be public information but it is definitely there.

My first reaction to reading that line was that Linux numbers are likely inflated by sampling bias.

They'll have to ask Australia very nicely to borrow a plane.
Or maybe their navy will ram a pacific island again.

A disturbingly large group think that history started on October 7 2023 and prior to that it was all sunshine and rainbows in the region.
Those people didn't hear about 70ish years of Israeli bullshit on the nightly news so as far as they're concerned it didn't happen.
