Just because other launchers offer a better cut doesn't make valve evil

Nobody is forcing game devs to use steam over epic, gog, itch etc

Plus the launcher that takes a lower cut (Epic) is famous for taking forever to add simple basic functions to their store like a shopping cart

Epic is I think one of my least favourite launchers, though heroic/legendary seems to do a better job

@flashgnash @mnemonicmonkeys i use heroic on my Mac since gog launcher won’t launch. But, I can not play windows games line I could on steam deck.

Apple are making steps towards supporting windows games but it's not there right now

Not much a launcher can do if the technology isn't out there to run the games
