Correction: Steam has the largest market share because for majority of it's existence, it had no competition. It already became a standart before others appeared. That being said, Valve has increasingly become evil during the past decade. I was fully on board with supporting valve, but not fixing fees, supporting and defending gambling, inventing subscription passes, supporting in-app purchases, abandoning games and not using their ridiculous money to develop things people want like Half-Life 3 (don't even get me started on TF2 mess, almost entire community holds grudge against Valve for enshittifying it like a corporation that only cares about profits). Sure, Valve also does some things that are great for gamers, but I feel like it's our duty as a society to keep these companies in check, otherwise it's a slippery slope where if they're no longer being held accountable for shitty things they do, it will become a normality.

I'm seeing some parallels to Elon Musk where everyone was praising him as an anti-corporate dude who's going to save everyone from oil or whatever, while few guys were screaming about red flags they're seeing, but everyone ridiculed them
