Those outliers probably make up over 50% of the market or more.

Be honest, whose ass are you trying to kiss with such a nonsense statement?

I guess that would be Math. 132 Million Active users is market dominance, not an outlier. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_(service)#:~:text=By 2021%2C the service had,132 million monthly active users.

I see the problem now. I’m not talking about active users or market share above, I’m talking about actors in the market. The examples of Steam and GOG are only two as opposed to the plethora of publishing companies that are actively against, or at least agnostic to the initiatives mentioned above. GOG stands firm on only selling games without DRM but Steam does very little in regards to get-rich-quick games. Advancing the general support of Linux is a great move, I won’t deny that, but it doesn’t fix a lot of the problems we have in the gaming market, it mostly just aids people who don’t want to be on Windows.
