The most popular games on mobile devices are casual, people like playing simplistic stuff for a bit. But more deeper core gaming experiences can also do well on Android. There are core games that have hundreds of thousands or millions of downloads.

If Linux has been growing, it doesn't appear to be in a signficant way. If Linux ever become a popular OS, I don't think its gonna happen as a PC OS competing with WIndows.

And yet the deeper core experiences aren't clearly outweighing the casual, that market is making tons more than the dedicated one in terms of downloads and profits.

It's never really been significant to those who never cared nor wanted to use Linux, but those that do care can spot the growth throughout it's history quite easily. 

Mate Windows isn't going to be around for hundreds more years, I think we should accept that no one company lasts for all of time let alone holding some form of control, times changes and that time will come to MS and the OS space in general.

Doesent matter if casual outnumbers the core market on Android. The core audience on Android is viable and growing. Is Linux gaming growing? Its not significant according to Steam.

My concern isnt what people will use hundreds of years from now. At some point Windows may go free to maintain its marketshare.
