      lol and that excuses their monopoly and blatant anti competition tactics?

      They made their own monopoly where they saw the opportunity. Doesn’t mean we can’t do better and shouldn’t fight billionaires entrenching themselves into aspect of life.

          Yeah M$ fucked up their chances at the steam monopoly. Still doesn’t mean we need it to be a monopoly at all. Going from one billionaire conglomerate to another owning the monopoly, still leaves you with a monopoly. Neither option is good, you are still stuck in a monopoly that will enshittify.

              Yes so now there is the operating system monopoly by the two giants and the gaming monopoly on pc with steam and the consoles being locked down ecosystems run by two corporations. None of that is good competition or a positive for creators or players.

              It’s still a fucking monopoly we are stuck in and steam like every damn oligarch tech company needs to be chopped up.

              Go on, lick that boot as hard as you can
