I'd love for GOG to be better competition for Steam, and they've made wonderful strides - I actually prefer their Galaxy client over Steam, though I also think UPlay is nicer than Steam since Steam has so much going on that I don't need. But like sibling commenter points out it's a numbers game and GOG's stock just doesn't compare yet. You can't get many AAA releases on GOG even after some time has passed since release - publishers are simply allergic to their strong no-DRM policy and see no reason to be there when people will happily buy it on Steam.
Where GOG is deftly competing is the AA market - games from smaller developers/publishers such as CD Projekt Red (CDPR is owned by the same company as GOG but they are a titan in the AA/AAA field), THQ Nordic, Paradox Interactive, and so on. Many of the games from these companies are released day and date on GOG.
