You’re reaching because steam makes you seethe for whatever reason.

Betting you have a rage-boner for Firefox too.

I’m guessing you feel this way about any company from the west lmao

Any company that makes their owner or investors billionaires while people like you and me have a hard time affording food and a roof is evil. That money comes from somewhere.

You really gotta aim your sights higher if that’s the criteria you’re using for a “monopoly”. Valve is a private company, that sells games and other “wants”, not “needs”. If people can’t afford games, without losing their house or struggling to eat, I don’t think that’s a company’s fault.

If Valve was even close to using anti-competitive methods to maintain market dominance, you’d be correct. However, a company having superior quality products and making good business decisions is not a basis or definition of a monopoly. They just make good decisions and provide quality products that people want and enjoy.

Instead of using strawman and false equivalency fallacies, try taking a look at what really constitutes anti-competitive practices.
