I actually don’t find it confusing at all, as I’m also pro-Steam. They do a lot of very cool things and actually much better than everyone else. But they’re still part of a systemic problem that is worth criticizing/raising awareness for/solving.
It’s an example of team sports/tribalism. People either see a thing as universally good or universally bad. Steam is the Good Guy, so our psyche is wired to not criticize them as much as possible.
that’s true, I think of them as the bad guy, because I hate launchers, so I try to critizise them a lot… even though compared to most other big companies they are a saint. sad
