Steam is full of DRM and people still worship Valve. If people actually gave a shit about DRM, they wouldn't accept that bs. They would force publishers to release DRM-free games on GOG.
I don't use Steam, but I think the sentiment was that Steam's DRM is less anti-consumer.
It is but they also allow crap like Denuvo on there. But I always buy on GOG if I can. Having access to my own copy of a game wins out every time.
The good that steam does for linux currently outweighs the DRM issue present in steam. It why they are catching less heat than others for it.
