Too many of my games collection are from Steam, so I don't think I can get much use out of this, if I'm understanding correctly. If I wanted to prep for the day Valve enshittifies, would I have to pirate the copies of games I own?
You might have some DRM free games in your Steam library, maybe you could backup those folders.
Oh, I'm such a dummy. I didn't know Steam games could be DRM-free. Thank you!
It would be awesome if someone wrote a Drop plugin to import DRM free games from a steam account.
And from GOG, if it still doesn't exist.
May try Drop out either way
For GOG it would be easy, there are several libraries that could be used.
Valve is already shit, it's just very good at making people think they're not.
