Debian is highly problematic for gaming. It can do it, and depending on games you play and the hardware you could never see a single issue. But back ported updates and the general lag time makes even mint and Ubuntu have frequent problems or poor support for new releases.
So it’s highly unsurprising that it doesn’t show up in a survey focused in gamers.
Ok, but, hear me out, Mint and Ubuntu are down stream of Debian. Like, realistically, you can build any distro using the package manager it’s built on.
I am surprised that Debian didn’t make the list under “Linux”. It’s all Arch, Ubuntu, and Mint. Everything I run here is Debian and MX.
