MODERATORS
Steam being larger than all their PC competitors put together is certainly a problem, but I don't think it's a problem that's affecting the topic the article discusses. That seems to be an entirely different issue.
Its so interesting how averse all of lemmy (and reddit before) reacts when someone dares to challenge their dopamine fix.
Monopolies = bad
No two ways about it.
You've said nothing and refuse to elaborate.
Maybe the pushback isn't because you're criticising Steam but because your criticism lacks substance and you refuse to provide any.
I honestly can't tell how your comment applies to what I said. Yes, monopolies are bad. That's why I said that Steam being so much larger than their competitors is a problem. I'm pretty sure we agree on that point, but your comment seems antagonistic and I don't know why.
