Valve exists in that weird superposition where I'm supposed to dislike them for their monopolistic power, shitty client, DRM, and just general fuck capitalism, but at the same time, they're the only thing standing between us and the end of PC gaming as we know it because they actually seem to give a gram of shit about us.

Like, how's an anti-corp dude supposed to feel, man?

@thomholwerda Valve is privately owned so CAN make decisions based on benefiting users (can is doing a lot of lifting here), or otherwise make long term moves (backing Linux) instead of focusing on the next quarter profitability. I only support them so long as they continue to at least make attempts to do good things. I don't use Ubuntu because Canonical is basically Microsoft. Valve is still very far away from "basically Microsoft" and not even moving that direction.
