I prefer steam’s openess as an incentive to sell games versus companies that manipulate you, spy on you, prevent repairs, steal your data or use all sorts of dark patterns. Steam is simply a company that builds products the right way. They deserve my £.

Oh and that sexy support of Linux. It won a loyal customer for life (or until they get acquired and get enshitified to death).

The Linux support saved my personal laptop from dual boot hell

Valve also dont sell $450 device for £450...

By my count I've bought 17 games since getting my SteamDeck, they got me.

Is there something wrong with that?

Sounds like a win-win-win situation for gamers (buyer), developers (seller), and valve (marketplace).
