Yeah fair. Steam is virtually a monopoly on PC gaming. If I had to guess, it's basically because it hasn't enshittified... and that may be the one of the biggest reasons it has succeeded so far.

In an ideal world we'd get to reap these benefits forever. But I do suppose that someday something will happen, and the stability and trust that Steam has built its reputation on will crumble. Then, all the worrying about digital purchases not being real purchases is gonna catch up with all of us. That day will suck.
