Most people don’t associate Windows as anything they can change. It’s what came with their PC, it currently works, it does what they want, the only thing they do is play that game and maybe surf the web… and even if they do know and care, when they get home late from work, the first thing they think is “let’s eat and then unwind with a game and go to bed”.
If more computers came with Linux from the factory, you’d see a better uptick because it’s done, it works, etc.
I am addicted to League of Legends. I do spend wast majority of my time on Linux but I dual boot when I want to play League into my 60GB partition. It’s not like I have not tried to quit but it is an addiction.
I’m never going to understand how people can be so addicted to a game that they would rather deal with ads and AI on OS level
Momentum and lack of time and awareness.

As a recovering Leagueaholic:
Friendly reminder that League worked perfectly on Linux for many years. Riot yanked support for zero reason other than a generic “fuck you” stance.
Come vote with feet when you’re ready :); I can only speak for myself but the grass has been much greener.
