    I hope steam is broken up. Monopolies and DRM are never in the users favor.

      What monopoly? If I have to choose between GOG, Steam, Epic, Ubisoft, Blizzard, Rockstar, EA, and others I am going with the least user-hostile, and the one that has Linux support.

      Steam is the only one that actually cares about the quality of a service, so maybe look at that instead of crying monopoly.

        They literally don’t know what a monopoly is, they just asked for Steam to be “broken up”

        Someone dose seem to stopp EA from doing it though, as they somehow managed to develop a worse launcher then their old one.

        But I really don’t think that someone was Steam.

      How would they even break up Steam? Separate their software and hardware development from the store? Can’t imagine that making any real impact on their practices.
