steam is just so based.

I dont think a single more based company has ever existed. It rivals the greats like linux, with a touch of gambling.

Steam may be a very successful business, but theyโ€™re still the seed crystal for a whole ecosystem of gambling that preys on addicts and children with the whole CSGO loot box thing. Take a wild guess what forms of addiction have the highest suicide rates?

Fuck Valve. Fuck all Corps. No business has ever nor can ever, genuinely give a shit about anything other than increasing profit.
