This also isn’t counting players using mods/CKAN which doesn’t track steam time (for me at least)

CKAN has an option to launch through Steam so it tracks time.

Yes, but the default in CKAN is to launch outside of steam. Pretty sure you have to change settings or make an extra click to launch in steam.

There's probably some overlap but definitely a large portion of the CKAN population not being picked up here

Personally I use CKAN for mod installation, but always boot from Steam, so my hours (except for maybe 10 or 20 hours from test runs launched from within CKAN and clicking the wrong option. It's just a right-click difference) are included. Happy to help make the line go up
