Not all Linux users are techies and tinkerers; Ubuntu used to be the recommended beginner one, I imagine plenty of people installed it once and it's been working fine ever since.
Also as these are numbers from ProtonDB I'd assume they're only representative of people who actively report game support, which has got to be a pretty tiny user fraction.
I guess that's been a problem for a while, gathering statistics about linux users, and yeah, protondb is perhaps not the most reliable source.
