Gaben isn't going to last forever. But honestly the only other good games storefront is GoG. I'll continue using Steam for as long as it's still good.
I've used GoG once for a game that wasn't on steam but I have done much more. Honestly I acknowledge that this ephemeral moment in time where PC gaming is kept in balance by Gaben can't last. But I really think the lens we should look at PC landscape today is one of appreciation. If EA ran the game in steam's shoes we wouldn't get things like summer sales or games at reduced prices long after their launch.
Don't be sad it will be gone be happy it happened.
