The major thing? Not global thermonuclear war? Not global warming leading to massive political and economic instability? Not democratic backsliding?

I like my PC games as much as the next guy, but let's be reasonable: It's just a luxury good.

    Someone: "I just had the worst day"

    DdCno: "Oh, the Worst day? Did you get diagnosed with cancer? Did you get hit by a bus and suffer full body paralysis? Did you lose your home and entire family in a fire? I don't understand figures of speech!"

    Honestly am not too worried about what you've mentioned.

    Those things will upset my life so radically, that there's no point in worrying about that, plus I have a lot of first world privlidge buffer before it realistically affects my life. I'm not saying that it wouldn't suck, but I don't care. A lot of things will go to absolute life-changing shit for everyone around me if it also affects me.

    Steam getting majorly enshitified will affect the major thing in my life, that I rely on to be able to handle the rest and retain at least some of my sanity, while changing nothing about the rest of my circumstances. It's something I interact with daily.

    Yes, I am reasonable, this is the thing I worry about the most, but I do recognize that it's a privilige.
