Linux support in games usually means support for Ubuntu/Steam runtime. No Linux user is asking for 100% QA coverage for Alpine and Kali.

If you mean Steam stats, it is comparable to macos market share.

Nope, not even in US.

Did you know that in 2020 ChromeOS machines sold better? I was also surprised.

Actually, it is.
MacOS is the platform that breaks ABI the fastest, even faster than Linux distributions. Apple expects the developers to keep up with maintenance of their software for each annual MacOS release -- which is exactly what game developers won't do. They expect to release their game, and after the wave of their sales ends, the game will end up basically unmaintained.
Hence, all the 32-bit games I have for MacOS won't ever run on M1. Or even any other Intel Mac that was upgraded to Catalina or newer. But their Linux counterparts will run on Linux for years to come.
I think this is a little more notable because 1/2/3 do run on Mac (or era-appropriate macs, at least). This will (absent of future news) be the first in the franchise not to.
Mac has 10% - 20% Market with 100M+ Active user, and judging from the M1 sales it should finally cross the 110M by late 2021.
Asking for Mac support isn't ridiculous question like it was in the 90s.
