I can’t understand the amount of energy people spend defending Valve.

Valve uses my money to make the Linux FOSS stack better for everyone, including me. GOG doesn't.

Buying on Steam instead of GOG serves my personal interests.

Conveniently forgeting the part where valve creates a gambling system for kids, as usual. But I get it, the only things that mathers is you.

Do you mean loot boxes in Counter-Strike? A) It's not a game for kids. B) And no, I'm not getting involved with parenting of other people's children, so I actually do not care.

But I get it, the only things that mathers is you.

I matter to me, yes.
