Steam is a proprietary app store shipping DRM and proprietary software. I can't say I'm eager to use it

If we are being fair, they are still reasonably fair to users. Open source gaming is not a reality.

They don't force you to use Steam, but still work on Proton as Open Source. They don't lock down their hardware.

What I'm trying to say is, while Valve is not perfect, it's much better than any big tech alternative.

devs can ship games on steam without drm, it's not valve that mandates it. ksp doesn't have drm for example
