That’s literally what it means, though. Going from 1.5% to 3% is damned impressive (though I’m not quite sure what exactly the other commenter is referring to, it took about 2 years to get there).
I agree, but it buries the lede of the adoption only increasing by 1.5%. They could have written “doubled from X to Y” to at least prepare our expectations that it might not be a high increment
First of all, nobody expects Linux to have much of market share in gaming anyway, so I don’t know who would think that a 100% increase is somehow not “preparing expectations”. Unless someone doesn’t undersand how percentages work, I guess.
Secondly, I specified what kind of increase it was.
dont… dont phrase sentences like this

Why? It’s objective truth - it went from 1.5% to 3%, which is a 100% increase.

It’s huge. Imagine if news said that 1,5% of people had recently switched to bycicles for their commute. What would your reaction be?
1.5% to 3% is a doubling (100% increase). It’s not 1.5%, but 1.5 percentage points. It’s a very normal use of percentages

I was nevertheless blind sided by your reckless comment, and demand commiseration immediately. In the form of a poem.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Don’t know how to poem
Even for you
🥲 beautiful…
