Chrome OS saw a good raise too. OS X(Mac) saw a decrease.

I didn't crunch the numbers, but as far as I see, most of the linux growth comes from the Steam deck, which runs a Linux OS.

This could also be the reason for the decrease of OSX, because more other, non classical computer, devices are included, which automatically reduces the share of Laptop and PC devices.

    So there is a similar percentage of users in the desktop and laptop space as before but more Linux-based handheld systems. Overall market share has become too broad nowadays for at a glance look at percentage of users for each platform as different sectors of systems will have different market share percentages.
