I agree with you on DRM, but it is worth noting that Value is a rare case where despite having a dominant market position, they continue to offer and improve the best client experience.
Not without missteps of course, but there are nowhere near as bad as Microsoft, Google, Apple, etc.
Valve could probably do a lot more to protect gamers but also they are actually very good about requiring disclosures that they absolutely don’t have to have, like third party accounts, Denuvo, EULA, kernel anti-cheat, etc.
i hate steam as much as the next drm-hater but this is… actually… surprisingly responsible
