    Valve ceo just added a $500 million mega yacht to his fleet. Valve true benefit is that thanks to window they managed to build a monopoly on videogames distribuition and that their customers are kids addicted to videogames.

  Valve also gutted their LGBTQIA+ content a few months back.

  So… chill a bit with the glazing. They are better in a lot of ways but they are not our friends.

  don’t piss off the customers

  Unless it’s their UI, they love to do pointless changes nowadays. On top of the stuff mentioned by other replies

    any and all UI changes will make people angry

    steam has had so few of them compared to idk youtube that, imo it’s fine even if it’s kinda pointless

      So much this. You can fix blatant bugs sometimes and have people whine because it breaks their flow to have it work correctly.

      What do you mean you made it so it no longer freezes for 20 seconds after clicking the Q-button?! I count on that pause to ensure my J-Flame comes at the right time! How dare you?!

      At least they kept some of the old ones, still kinda dumb that to access the old tags system you have to click search with an empty search field of all things. Also kinda weird that they killed old skins so fast, I don’t have anything against using SFP and patching in a new one but it’s gotta be really demotivating for skin creators.

  I don’t love much how people fall from valve marketing. Not owning any game i buy would piss me off
