Steam? Though I’m not sure I’m loving it… 22 years now… But it worked back then, it still works now, and it hasn’t lost itself to enshitification. It even followed me to linux.
The enshittification of Steam would really sting and significantly harm PC gaming as a whole.
As GabeN ages, I really worry about the day when he finally hands control of that company over, because as soon as ROI becomes their primary objective, it’s game over.
Prioritizing the experience and quality of the platform over profit maximization has actually earned them more money in the long run as they’ve slowly snowballed over all their competitors. I really hope the new stewards understand this and genuinely love gaming as a whole as it seems a lot of decision-makers at Valve currently do.

I’m loving their commitment to Proton, making gaming on Linux better than ever.
