this is how we get companies like walmart and amazon.

they roll in, throwing bags of money into a bottomless pit as long as it takes to amass a large customer base and ruin existing competitors. Then they start enshittifying, and everyone wonders where all the competition went.

No, Steam are the monopoly now! The only other option is Good Old Games and for weird indie titles Itch.io.
