And 4% of gaming is on Linux. 5% of PH traffic ≠ 5% market share, because I bet mobile devices are part of their metric (and are they counting the same ones twice if the same PC uses a different IP?).

2% is excellent growth, but there's a long way to go to even compete with Apple (which is second place at 20-25%, iirc).

No, desktop and mobile are counted separately in the Pornhub survey.

You’re underestimating the market share as according to Statcounter and the Valve Hardware Survey the marketshare is at 4.03% and 2.03%.
