I think as long as Gabe runs the show, it will be fine, but you know that there are venture capitalists and mega-corps all ready to maximize stakeholder value.

At least with GoG, you can at least download your installers if it ever begins the enshittification slide. Steam will take everything with it should it start down that path.

The question is whether or not whoever or whatever Gabe puts into his place when he steps down will act like him.

I see it as a serious likelihood he'll proof the company against venture capital and going public
