These are the results of the monthly Steam Hardware Survey which polls just a small percentage of users. You will be notified by the Steam client if you have been chosen for a particular month and you can opt in or out at that time. My account is 20 years old and I’ve gotten the notification maybe half a dozen times, it doesn’t happen often.
Contrary to that, for whatever reason I get a hardware survey 2 times a year or so. (Running Linux for 8 years). I think it might have to do with some algorithm based on play time or something. There is little sense for steam to select a steam account that is completely inactive so it must take that into account somehow

Unrelated to their question but I think Linux users would be more likely than windows users to opt out, when presented with such a prompt.
We also want Proton to become better, and the survey is anonymous and very transparent. I always participate gladly.
I see your idea, but i think a lot of linux gamers are propably younger and thus take more pride in linux, so they would show up
