I'm more surprised at PewDiePie, tbh. Jason runs a Mastodon instance, with the account notjustbikes@notjustbikes.com (I'm hoping that by leaving out the @ sign before the local username, that won't send him an unwanted notification), so the fact that he's also a Linux user is less surprising. I don't watch PDP, but I gather he has a very large and impressionable audience, so him promoting Linux should be good!
I was surprised to see him promoting Linux as well. People should not be shy about this.
PDP is actually running his game videos on Linux? That would be pretty amazing.
He doesn't do a lot of gaming videos now, but it does seem so. He talked about Proton and running OBS, so for anything Linux compatible via Proton is likely that's what he's doing
