GOG and Itch are both great services. Epic is run by a psychopath and working hard to create the walled garden they themselves have been railing against. That's why EGS can go to hell but I'll gladly buy from the others.
I do not know or care about the personality or intentions of any of the executives in these corporations. Pick your variety of libertarian tech billionaire, I don't intend to root for any of them.
This is a Godzilla "let them fight" moment where in my ideal scenario none of these people would have this amount of money or control over other people's work, but since that's the world we live in, them being in competition benefits me down the line, so I don't want any one of them to get away with the whole thing.
