Erik L. Midtsveen 🏴🏳️‍🌈<p>Steam is supposed to be this platform where you own games, but let's be real, you're just renting them from a digital landlord who can evict you at any time. It's like buying a house, but the deed says "you can live here until we decide otherwise."</p><p>It's been two years since I last used Steam, and I'm glad I don't use it anymore. I would purchase a game, play it once, and then never again, not even finish it. It was a waste of money and time in my life.</p><p>Steam, while not as harmful as Big Tech in stifling creativity, still uses a licensing model that restricts true ownership. In my view, Steam does offer some resistance to Windows through its SteamOS and Steam Deck community, which promote a more open gaming ecosystem.</p><p>It's not all bad, but deleting your account might feel like a loss because capitalism has conditioned you to tie your spending to emotional value, and that's exactly how it's designed to make you feel.</p><p>I'm glad I deleted my Steam account when I did. </p><p><a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/Steam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Steam</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/Capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Capitalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/AntiCapitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AntiCapitalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/GamingOnLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GamingOnLinux</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/Gaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gaming</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/SteamDeck" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SteamDeck</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/SteamOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SteamOS</span></a></p>

Feels like a wild take on ‘90s American hedonism, wrapped in chaos! 🔥<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LollipopChainsawRePOP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LollipopChainsawRePOP</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LollipopChainsaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LollipopChainsaw</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/gaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gaming</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/gamingonlinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gamingonlinux</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/steamdeck" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>steamdeck</span></a></p>
