Other than my phone, I would never purchase software from an OS-specific store. Why would you ever choose to do that?
- pjmlp 1y agoWhy not? It is already there, has enough choice to keep me entertained, I don't suffer from FOMO.
- Sohcahtoa82 1y agoI try to avoid vendor lock-in when I can. I'm a Windows user. I don't want to lose my apps if (really, when) I eventually switch to Linux. Buying my games on Steam means I can play my games anywhere.
- pjmlp 1y agoNot really, because not every game on Steam does exist in all other platforms supported by Steam, and Proton is still Windows anyway.
