Valve is directly owned by him with no stockholder nonsense, as I understand it, so perhaps he has willed it to someone who will handle it well. Hopefully. I don't like everything about Steam, but I do like that, assuming I'm not misinformed.

What I'm paranoid is that it seems companies have started giving out arbitrary bans as part of a power trip.

My friend's an Overwatch Streamer and they shot him with a one-month ban for "Being Toxic"

His toxic behavior was... "Asking people to stop using racial slurs in voice chat"
