Dusk: Unpopular opinion: I'd rather pay Valve 30% and put up with their de facto monopoly than help Epic work towards their own (very obviously desired) monopoly (twitter.com)

When steam shuts down and we have Ubisoft and Epic to replace it with I'm just moving to itch.io and probably torrenting my steam library if it comes to the worst. Also I might actually stop playing games since steam is pushing proton development forward and without them I have no reason to play or buy anything new. Epic's shitty CEO has made toxic remarks against linux before and Ubisoft just couldn't care less. I'll support a company that supports my interests, epic doesn't so I don't simple as.
