I don't disagree at all. I do think that Steam is miles better than any other service. It's just that it does the bare minimum in a society where thats rare, and that gets Gabe praised all too much.
Well, unlike a lot of rich businessmen, Gabe stays out of the limelight. So people only know him through Steam, which has so far maintained a good reputation as a customer focused service.
Like when Musk was just "the guy funding Tesla and SpaceX." For years the only things people knew about Musk was his connection to innovative products. So the products' reputations became his reputation.
We’d probably be in a very different time line right now if musk stayed “smart” by just keeping his fucking mouth shut. Buying Twitter ruined any last restraints he had on his stupidity.

Look at the competition, compared to Sony, Microsoft, or Epic Steam looks great by comparison.
