2024 is the Year of Linux on the Desktop, at least for my boyfriend. He's running Windows 7 right now, so I'll be switching him to Ubuntu in a few days. Ubuntu was chosen because Proton is officially supported in Ubuntu.
I'd rather blame the customer who keeps buying from the corporation but claims some moral high ground over the company.
Put your money where your mouth is. This isn't the first time Steam has dropped support for an Operating System and you're acting like this is some new revelation.
If you're so against what these corporations are doing, stop giving them so much money. I'm not sure how much more you can glaze a company than you already have with your wallet.
All the blame should be on the customers, We should never try to hold the blessed companies accountable or criticize them in any way for their behavior, because it is the filthy customers fault for it all.
afterall, the customers just downright refuse to use their future sight to avoid problems, so they deserve it.
Yes yes, it's all the companies fault even when the customer refuses to read the terms of service or acknowledge the company's history of similar moves.
If you really cared, there are other platforms you could be using.
Anything to avoid personal responsibility.
Your comments read like someone who eats at McDonald's and then blames them for being overweight.

Thats literally what you're doing in this entire thread. "Customer should have known the coffee was hot and should have been more careful" is your entire argument.
Your ability to twist comments to fit your narrative in your own head are hilarious.
Steam leases digital games with a shitty Term of Service and the ability to change their agreements at any time. You're the one blindly consuming then getting upset at the natural consequences.
Take some personal accountability for once.
I bet you'll still be buying on Steam this time next year.

Uh huh.
Steam leases digital games with a shitty Term of Service and the ability to change their agreements at any time. You’re the one blindly consuming then getting upset at the natural consequences.
And now we're back to the same old "You should have known the coffee was hot, its your fault for being careless and getting burned" arguments.
Take some personal accountability for once.
Accountability for me, but not accountability for billion dollar businesses, Right?
You didn't stop buying games when they killed XP support. They announced at the begining of this year (at least by March 2023) that they were dropping windows 7 support and you still kept buying.
Why do you keep doing the same thing but expecting a different outcome?
Stop spending money at places you claim are anti consumer. You are the problem. You. There are other companies you could support but you want to keep funding Steam while crying victim.
All this because I said valve should have a legacy downloader so people can still play the things they bought that dont work on modern OS's.
Something that would cost valve, a multibillion dollar company, almost nothing in the grand scheme of things.
But apparently caused so much offense, that you've sat here clawing your hair out at the sheer audaciousness the comment.
You really need to go outside and take a few calming breaths and realize how fucked up it is that you are this defensive over criticism of a company that doesnt give a single shit about you.
