This graphic is just a bit misleading, and the more detailed results show the opposite story. Bazzite is as 5.53% of Linux users, up 1.29% from last month and one of the most used single distros, behind SteamOS, Arch, Mint, and CachyOS.

bazzite is bringing in new users, not converting old ones.

True, I think that's usually the case for most distros. Most users aren't looking for a reason to swap from a distro they're comfortable with.
