Show me a game store that supports Linux with a good selection of games of modern and major game titles.

I suggest you to not play proprietary junk that belongs to evil corporations.

If you feel the urge to play to certain videogames and can’t resist you are probably addicted to these.

Also, Steam directly supports and funds a plethora of open source tools that benefit everyone.

So do other evil corporations like microsoft and google. They do more damage than good.

You’re right about 99.99+% of cases. And I’m not defending Valve as some altruistic company. But lumping in Valve with the likes of Amazon, Oracle, Nvidia, Monsanto, Elon Musk, etc, simply on the amount of money they make is desingenous at best, but frankly is insane.

Valve ceo owns more megayachts than bezos or elon musk and his company promotes gambling to kids and sell you games under DRMs.

They are just as bad

You’re one of those people that have a militant mindset when it comes to FOSS that gives open source a weird and bad reputation.

You are defending a billionare corporation, do you have any reputation at all?

You have no idea what you’re talking about, and frankly you sound like a psycho.

Companies like EA make up a small fraction of the available games. Most of them are small studios with people who have a passion for making games.

So do other evil corporations like microsoft and google.

Which proves my point that FOSS can’t exist in a vacuum. I hope your using the Hurd kernel, otherwise you’re still benefiting from and using the work of evil corporations!

Valve ceo owns more megayachts than bezos or elon musk

He owns a shipyard. It’s a side passion of his. And most of his vessels serve a scientific purpose, like marine research.

He seems a bit like James Cameron in that sense. Cameron’s first passion was marine research, and he used his earnings from film production to fund his own research stuff.

There is NOTHING wrong with someone who made bank using their money for their passion. It means they keep they money flowing through the economy instead of just sitting in a bank account.

They are just as bad

Then either you are ignorant of the world or have a child’s understand of things.

You are defending a billionare corporation

A bit, ya.

do you have any reputation at all?

Yes, lots of people know me. Therefore I have a reputation.
