Competition in capitalism is always better than a lack thereof. But, we’ve not busted monopolies in a significant way since Ma Bell. And, even if we were, at 75% of the global market share they’d not warrant any action yet.
There’s going to be a dominant organization because late stage capitalism sucks. And, I’d rather it be Valve than some alternative trying to fuck me over at every opportunity.
I want to note that you’d need about $143 in gross sales to meet the threshold of $100 in net profit.
On the surface that sounds like a lot. But, they’re providing a service without any guarantee of any income. Epic can only compete because they’ve few users and are willing to operate at a near loss in attempt to garner market share.
This will be a difficult one for others to understand as a “good deal”. Gamers are usually correct when they pull out their pitchforks. This should not be one of those times.
Does Steam take a cut for distribution?
If not, while this emotionally sucks, they’ve a solid operational policy.

Quartery earnings report due 10/25. There’s no reason to sit capital here if there’s no catalyst for change.
That’s incredibly easy to do on any analysis platform.

Outside, the sign says “Heros Work Here”. Inside, two people do the work of four.
Fuck. I was overcomplicating it.
I’ve two Mint VMs in Virtualbox. One hosts internal services and has critical data. The other is hosting services exposed to the internet and has no data of value.
I think I can paravirtualize one of these VMs, I think using docker. I’d end up with a single image I could then easily migrate to physical hardware.
Am I on the right track? I’ve no problem figuring out how. But, I’m not sure which means is best and why.
Neither is publicly traded. Neither of us know the numbers.
Does Steam make money on hosting indie games?
How does one research such a question?
I don’t need answers. I had them before I made my second post above.
Good luck to you.
