        Steam isn’t DRM though.

            There are lots of games you can play without even having steam running.

              Yeah, steam offers a free(?) very basic DRM for developers/publishers to use but they don’t have to use it and loads don’t.

              Steam is a marketplace.

              Imagine a world where steam used it’s monopoly for good.

              With great power comes great responsibility, and steam abdicated.

                What is it you think Steam should be doing that it isn’t?

                  Refusing to allow DRM on it’s platform. How is that unclear from the context?

                    Because it was in reply to someone saying

          Lol at whoever said “downvoting the claim isn’t enough, I also need to downvote clarification of the claim”
