Steam obsessed people always cry about the lack of "features" in other stores, as if a game store + launcher needs features other than being able to buy and launch games.

Hell, I don't even want to launch games. Just let me buy and download an exe (oh yeah, GoG does that, which is why I use GoG whenever I can...)

Sucks for devs that people just won't buy their game if it isn't on Steam though :/ Idk how to change peoples' behaviour, unless Steam does something egregiously bad to users

One of those features is Proton. Thanks to Steam I can play every game I am interested in, without the need to install Windows.

GoG sometimes pushes out Linux installers that they immediately stop supporting, resulting in non-working games. Fuck that.
