    If like you say Steam is only garbage, make a list of good alternative.

    • Epic Game (worst)

      • Launcher -> horrible and worst than Steam. Actually you can use heroic games launcher (less problems)
      • Store -> really bad
      • DRM
      • Need update to play game
      • Only Windows / Mac (i don’t care about mobile for the small amount of game)
      • Not version for Linux and Tim Sweeney not like Linux and say a big amount of stupidity.
      • Doesn’t have all the tools and feature for dev like Steam
      • No Workshop alternative
    • Gog (need more game and feature)

      • Gog galaxy (latest test in 2022) -> good launcher but no Linux version
      • Games for Windows, Linux, Mac
      • Not all game can be found here because it’s only DRM free game
      • Doesn’t have all the tools and feature for dev like Steam
      • No Workshop alternative

    From what i can see, Steam is not perfect but it’s better than Epic for sure, and have more feature and game than Gog. I don’t include itch because for me it’s not a gaming store.

    If anyone have another store, or want to correct anything.

      Gog could use more games but if it’s between using a platform that forces you to use a runtime and nothing at all, I’d much rather play nothing at all.

        I don’t want Gog to change in order to have more games in its store. In fact, I have a lot of games on Steam because of the simplicity on Linux and I don’t want Gog to become like Steam, I want a DRM-free alternative.
