Steam over here just open sourcing their full ass os and you can literally do anything you want. Best money ive spent

Granted 90% of the components they used in SteamOS are readily available open source components, the componets they did make they did also open source (such as gamescope).

And the only digital store so far that directly allows sharing your collection with your family (yes, I call my long time friends a family). I mean, it am sure they are winning the long game.

Meanwhile EA got their like third remake which STILL sucks, Epic trying to buy exclusivity in PC market, Ubisoft launcher is just a shit stain that nobody wants to use directly and is forced on them, and the rest (Bethesda, Rockstar, Battle.net) are not really worth considering as a store, rather than just DRM-checking slop nobody really needs.

Valve remains goated because they're not a public company. They set out to satisfy their customers, not their shareholders.

Yeah the amount of games I buy and never even play, its ridiculous lol, big ass back log and can play anything I want under the sun. If my deck can't handle it then moonlight and streaming from my rig can.
