    There’s a steam deck discord that was muting people and banning some people for even saying the word “emulation”

    The mods were quite scared and authoritative and acting powerless at the same time.

      Valve gets away with way too much, honestly. They’re a pretty shit company that routinely dips into dark money shit.

        This is a community made discourse about the steam deck. Valve doesn’t control this discord. I’m interested to hear more about the dark money thing you mentioned.

          Basically they created and profited off a market of skin trading. When other companies accidentally create an illegal skin economy they’re quick to shut it down. Valve was like “nah lets make a quick buck off of it instead” People Make Games has great videos about some of the other fucked up things they do if this piques your interest.
